Beethoven: The Piano Trios [Box set]

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Trio Fonteney is an excellent example of musicians who play their instruments better than they play music. They make a consistently good sound, and they play together with impressive precision. They also rush through nearly everything in this set as though they have no interests except the sound, the precision, and conserving studio time. No matter how well they are recorded--and they are recorded very well--these performances don't convey the musical content of Beethoven's Trios. At full price the Borodin Trio still reigns supreme in this music (Chandos), and the Naxos set by the Stuttgart Piano Trio gives everyone a run for their money. --Leslie Gerber

5 out of 5 stars Enraptured and inspired recordings!.......2006-09-08

This set of Beethoven' s piano trios has overly been one of the most famed in the late sixties. The inspired and magnificent musical chemistry among these three soloists was of first-rate class. On one hand you should be aware the fabulous rapport between Mrs. Dupre and his husband Mr. Barenboim in the set of cello sonatas; on the other hand Pinchas Zukerman and Barenboim recorded too some Beethoven 's violin sonatas; so it's not easy to understand the positive vibes.

It should be underlined we are talking interpretative freshness, and that youthful breadth among this ensemble that hardly, adding all his ages, would be under the 100 years. If you are seeking for definitive versions, go for the set of Kempff, Szerying and Fournier, but this is a very wise option.

5 out of 5 stars A Treasure!!!.......2006-05-03

It would take a long, long time to write all that could be written about this historic CD. Here, you have three of the best musicians ever in their respective fields playing some of Beethoven's very best music. I now have a large classical music collection. This CD is one of the gemstones of my collection. I love it. Reference grade.

5 out of 5 stars Fine Beethoven Chamber Works.......2007-07-12

These CDs are discs 3 & 4 of the complete piano trios of Beethoven. They were recorded from 1979 to 1984, and remastered and re-issued on EMI classics in 2004; I am surprised that this is the first review posted on Amazon.
The major works on these CDs are the later trios, opus 70 no 1, "Ghost", opus 70 no 2, and opus 97,"Archduke", dedicated to Beethoven's friend, pupil and benefactor the Archduke Rudfolf. This, opus 97, is probably the best trio sonata, but some of Schubert's come close. These later trios are more interesting as the cello is a full member of the group, no longer restricted to tagging along with the left hand of the pianist.
The players are Vladimir Ashkenazy on piano, Itzhak Perlman on violin and Lynn Harrell on cello. The first two are big names from the 1980s, and Harrell is a first class player, if much less well known. So you would expect a first class performance, and that's what you get. Ashkenazy leads but never dominates, the performace is light and airy, precise, often delicate, and joyful. It's the best "Archduke" I have heard, and that is the one you will come back to time
When you consider the budget price it has to get 5 stars.

5 out of 5 stars Still the Best.......2007-01-10

My husband and I have loved the Beaux Arts Trio for many years and were very happy to find the edition of the Beethoven piano trios. The interpretations are superb, the playing is masterful and flawless. As long as the pianist Menahem Pressler will remain with the Trio, we will always try to hear them in concerts or on CD. We own most of their recordings.

5 out of 5 stars Beethoven shines.......2006-09-24

When one thinks of Beethoven, one often imagines the grand symphonic sound. This collection of piani trios, however, is a feather in the wind. They are beautiful and warm. There is room to breathe as one basks in the sheer genius of this composer's gift of melody and composition.

5 out of 5 stars Amazing and eternally listenable.......2006-04-11

I decided one day to look into string chamber music, and lucked out completely by getting this five-disk series.

I was not familiar with these pieces and am still amazed that such sounds were ever created or could be conceived of.

I particularly love the third CD in this production.

I would love to put the first few chords on Trio 7 on my cell phone, it would be so superior to everybody else's little ditties that we all suffer through!

I have listened to this CD for a couple years now and do not tire of it.

4 out of 5 stars Trios and music education.......2006-02-26

I have become interested in trios since we had a visit this year of a wonderful trio that played Haydn, Brahms, and Schubert. I realized here was a whole area I had missed. Since then I have been making up for it. I am learning much about various composers I already thought I understood fairly well. What has been most surprising is the function of music in the home -- the market these pieces were primarily written for. With that in mind, it is certainly interesting to imagine what a home must have been like in the evening with some friends playing these pieces. They must have been fairly accomplished or these would not have gone very well. They are challenging. What does that say about the way people thought? How did music influence their imaginations and their reasoning? (The Mozart Effect). I find that even though I enjoy these what makes them worth having and listening to is this bit of cultural imagining I add to listening to them. That said, I have not figured out yet if I have a favorite. I know the Schubert was the favorite of the cellist that recently visited and he explained why. But that was from the point of view of a person playing. Otherwise, I wonder if these are more like baseball. They can be really boring if you are not in the game.

3 out of 5 stars Caution On This Set.......2006-02-21

The piano is not balanced with the violin and cello, it drowns them out. The violin at times is quite muted and the cello is often indistinct. Listen to the samples critically before buying. I found the same problem on another Philips set of Haydn Piano Trios.

Amazon.com essential recording

Surprisingly, this seems to be the only coupling of the three most popular Clarinet Trios in the repertoire. The all-star ensemble, all musicians who have frequently performed together, turns out extremely fine performances of all three works. If the Brahms seems like the most thoroughly understood, in its combination of warmth and impulse, the other two works are nearly as fine. Very good sound, resonant and very well balanced, completes a total winner of a disc. --Leslie Gerber

5 out of 5 stars Perfect together.......2007-07-14

I'm not usually one for collections of classical music "greats."

But this Sony Classical CD isn't an instance of the "usual" such affairs. Rather the performances of the 18th Century Mozart and Beethoven and 19th Century Brahms trios were recorded at a concert series at New England Conservatory of Music in Boston from June 27 to June 29, 1993.

I'd love to have listened live. But hearing a CD of these three master musicians--Emmanuel Ax (piano) Richard Stoltzman (clarinet) and Yo Yo Ma (cello)--is a very fine substitute.

I don't understand the supposed few flaws others hear in these performances. All three pieces make wonderful chamber music, and both the works and the musicians are perfect together.

Maybe musicians are usually good critics, but concerning this CD, the plain old-fashioned music listeners call it best. Count me a simple music-listener--and a fan of this CD.

2 out of 5 stars Stoltzman? more like Sucksman.......2007-03-18

I bought this CD on a whim, figuring "with these musicians, it can't be bad!" Well, it can.

The biggest and most readily apparent problem is Stoltzman's clarinet playing. He seems to have become so convinced of his own brilliance as a musician that he's thrown restraint to the wind. He plays so aggressively in some sections and his tone is so shrill that I occasionally cringe to listen to it. Or, I should say, I *used* to cringe, because I sold this CD back to the store today.

As for Ax and Ma, while their playing is decent, they seem to have become infected by Stoltzman's rambunctiousness and at times the whole thing sounds like a three-way ego contest. There are much better recordings of these pieces available.

(Apparently, this recording won the 1996 Grammy for best chamber performance. Just goes to show that the Grammys have a lot more to do with whose name is on the cover than what's actually on the record.)

5 out of 5 stars Camaraderie: Ax/Stoltzman/Ma Finesse the Masters.......2005-08-15

Listening to this buoyant and refreshing recording of the three major trios for clarinet, piano and cello confirms the fact that ensemble playing is best served when the performers of like mind. It is nothing short of a joy to hear Emanuel Ax, Richard Stoltzman, and Yo-Yo Ma sit down to join spirits in chamber music. The results are infectious, in keeping with each composer's work, and played with meticulous detail and warmth.

While most people will find the Brahms trio (opus 114) the most fully realized of the three, on this recording the Beethoven trio #4 (opus 11) is the most illuminating performance of the three. The phrasing is crisp, with one instrument taking up the leading melody and passing it graciously to the other instruments. It is a cohesive work, splendidly played. Our triad of great musicians obviously enjoys every moment of bringing this wonderful work to life. That is not to say that the Mozart trio (K 498) is not superb - it is just that this work is played so often that familiarity results in less attention to the performance.

This recording is highly recommended not only for those multitudes of fans of these three extraordinary musicians (and friends!), but also for lovers of chamber music of all forms. Grady Harp, August 05

4 out of 5 stars Mostly beautiful, with some so so moments.......2004-07-29

I think this CD has some great moments, and a few that could use a little work. My main complaint is that at some times, Stoltzman often sounds overly-excited, both in his phrasing and his tone quality. The final movements of the Beethoven and Brahms both suffer from this occasionally.

I find that Stoltzman excels on the more delicate music, and accordingly the Mozart Trio and slower movements of the Brahms are absolutely beautiful.

Because of the few flaws (plus the fact that some pieces are transcribed from trios originally featuring viola), this CD shouldn't be your standard versions of these pieces, but this CD certainly makes an interesting and fun addition to CD collection.

1 out of 5 stars Disappointing performances by truly great performers.......2003-11-25

It seems to me that these trios were put together with an absolute minimum of rehearsal time. Phrasing is often not quite together, the voices do not consistently pass one to another, and the Brahms in particular seems to be rather disorganized. It's obvious that all three performers have deep understandings of the music, but the conflicts in their interpretations were apparently not addressed or resolved in the pre-session rehearsals. All you have to do is listen to a couple of the transitions points in the Brahms to realize that these performers are solo artists, not ensemble players.

Additionally, these recordings were seriously marred by Stoltzman's performance. While it is true that Muhlfeld, the clarinettist for whom the Brams Trio was written, did use vibrato, it's unlikely that he played with the Glen Miller sound. Stoltzman's awful tone is hugely responsible for my distaste for this recording.

I don't particularly care for the Beethoven or Mozart trios, but they were better executed than the Brahms. The Brahms is a much more sophisticated piece than the other trios, and it deserves a much better treatment than the one afforded here.

It's truly unfortunate that these three great performers did not put together an equally great performance.

5 out of 5 stars lightness, sheer delight, and exalted beauty...........2007-06-23

I am passing along a slightly edited review by the well-known music reviewer Jason Serinus with which i concur
entirely: Discover how perfectly the magnificent Chung musicians capture the spiritual elevation of Beethoven who, like Schubert, managed to transcend his personal pain (increasing deafness) while composing a work that is filled with joy and light.The unpretentious Chungs earn a star in the firmament for their ability to transform printed notes into musical greatness. Lightness, sheer delight, and exalted beauty infuse their interpretation.

      I'm so glad Mr. Gigliotti finally decided to record chamber music (I have several of his recordings with the Philadelphia Orchestra from the 49 years he performed with them). I agree with the other review of this recording; it is truly the best Brahms trio recording I have ever heard.

      This is definitely the best recording of Brahms Clarinet Trio I've ever heard. It easily surpasses Sony's Stolzman/Ma/Ax recording in both interpretation and sound quality. Beethoven's trio is very good as well, and Glinka's Trio pathetique is a pure delight. Highly recommended.
