The Archduke Piano Trio in Concert September 12 at Laidlaw!
Posted on September 5, 2017 by Keith Bohnet
On September 12 at 7:30 p.m. in the Laidlaw Performing Arts Center Recital Hall, the
Archduke Piano Trio will perform in concert. Comprised of violinist Enen Yu, cellist
Guo-Sheng Huang and USA piano professor Robert Holm, the Archduke Trio will perform
works by Mozart, Middleton and Suk.
The Piano Trio in C major is the fourth of five mature trios composed in the last
five years of Mozart's life, featuring well-balanced voicing between instruments and
3-part counterpoint. Retired USA composer Owen Middleton's one-movement piece was
written for and dedicated to the Archduke Piano Trio, exhibiting frequent tempo and
character changes throughout, and utilizing themes from the same composer's opera
"Snick Snickers." And finally, the Czech composer Josef Suk, Dvorak's pupil and son-in-law,
composed the three-movement Piano Trio in C minor, op. 2 while still a student at
the Prague Conservatory.
