Shaped by elegance and inner fire, this program brings together two absolute masterpieces of the piano trio repertoire. With his Piano Trio No. 1 in D minor, Felix Mendelssohn draws us into a whirlwind of Romantic fervor: luminous, ardent music in which virtuosity intertwines with tender, intimate poetry. Each movement unfolds with remarkable finesse, carried by a fluid and natural dialogue between piano, violin, and cello.
In contrast, Maurice Ravel’s Trio opens the door to an entirely different world—one of captivating modernity. Inspired by Basque rhythms, dance, melancholy, and shimmering colors, Ravel crafts a work of striking sonic richness, where formal elegance meets a deeply original imagination.
From Mendelssohn’s Romantic intensity to Ravel’s iridescent and mysterious soundscapes, this concert offers a compelling journey through a century of musical creation, revealing the full expressive power and diversity of the piano trio.
