    “In 1854, laboring under the "curse" of Schumann's glowing predictions for Germany's new rising star, a young twenty-one year old Brahms decided to publish his first chamber composition, the Piano Trio in B major, Op. 8. This was no small undertaking: Brahms was a fierce self-critic and is known to have consigned several early chamber works to the fire. Thirty-five years later, in 1890, with all but a few final works ahead, the mature, master Brahms returned to the same trio compelled to revise. With his characteristic humor, Brahms claimed, "I didn't provide it with a new wig, just combed and arranged its hair a little". His changes were in fact substantial: he shortened the work by about one-third, significantly modifying all but the scherzo. It was around this time that Brahms decided to retire, after which he was coaxed momentarily by a late affair with the clarinet into a final small set of compositions. This piano trio therefore has a special significance for Brahms the chamber composer: it began his public career and it preoccupied his attentions again at the end of an astonishing series of masterpieces. In its final form, the B major piano trio bears the hand, the mind and the heart of both the young and the elder Brahms.
    Though an early work, the first of his three piano trios is unmistakably Brahms. Lasting nearly half of its total duration, the first movement is a massive sonata beginning with a beautiful theme in the cello, jarred by violent contrast and escalating into a mountain of dramatic development. A restless, dark character dominates most of the trio from the first movement's secondary themes to the brooding march of the scherzo to the wind-blown sweep of the finale rondo. While the light of B major frequently breaks through, the majority of the Trio gravitates to minor related keys, ending, despite the suggestions of its title, on a solid b minor chord. Typical of Brahms, the textures are thick, frequently juxtaposing the heavy romantic piano with the strings, violin and cello unified in a variety of parallel harmonies and symmetric counter motions.
    To counterbalance such weight, Brahms offers the third movement adagio, a slow movement of such repose that it seems to hover, nearly motionless, an introspective intermezzo from another world. The lightest movement in multiple senses of the word, it is perhaps the most emotionally compelling, certainly, the most peculiar. The soft musical meditation focuses primarily on the piano with echoing commentary by an ethereal chorus of strings. The central section of its ternary form gathers into a tender, melancholy song first in the cello, passing to the piano and the violin across interludes that are somber, even haunting. Ephemeral, the concrete diffuses again into the abstract, the reappearance of the now familiar beginning transforming the indefinite into the transcendent.”

    A great performance. I like the way Capucon positions his stand to the right so he can maintain eye contact with Kavakos.

    Wow, Capucon was born to play Brahms. He is fantastic. And paired with these other two. A real treat.

    I heard Kavakos play in the Op. 8 trio back in the late 90's in Minneapolis and it was a revelation. Wonderful to hear this performance from 20 yrs later and he hasn't missed a beat.

    What a musical adventure! So near to happiness, till frost spreads everywhere (in the Adagio : great sepulchral sounds produced by N.Lugansky : it must echo like that in a grave...). And the ending, this panting call exploding in an unexpected mixture of urgent expectancy, warmth and despair !

  • @DavidGoldsmith

    I love the romance, the fervour, in Brahms, when he has a reputation for being serious, gruff almost. The Brahms of the last piano pieces, or the lovely clarinet sonatas. This Op 8 was Brahms as a young amorous thrusting man of course (noting that this performance is the revised, much better, 1891 version of the original sprawling version from the 1850s). Great performance from three highly talented instrumentalists. Please guys consider a Beethoven Op 56 Triple Concerto - you would ace that for sure - and another underestimated work (a simple part for someone like NL of course); I happen to think that in the right (6) hands it should hold its head proud with the other concerti.

    Really sounds better when there are modulations in the music. Brahms music is actually hard to play and needs a lot of practise to master every piece whether it's for piano, or chamber and orchestra!
