Haydn: Piano Trios, Hob. XV:14, 18, 21, 26 & 31

Haydn: Piano Trios, Hob. XV:14, 18, 21, 26 & 31

Since forming in the late ’80s, Trio Wanderer have—with only one change of personnel—become one of the finest piano trios on the concert circuit. Surprisingly, they’ve recorded little Haydn, so this album is very welcome. The French trio have a lovely spring in their musical step and Haydn suits them to perfection. Fast movements flash past in a spirit of sheer delight while the slower ones are savored but never milked, and their tightly focused, well-balanced sound and restrained use of vibrato is very attractive.
