Programme
Robert Schumann: Piano Trio no. 2 in F major, Op.80
Robert Schumann: Piano Quartet in E flat Major, Op.47
Overview
The promise of a perfect exploration of German Romanticism with one of its most brilliant creators, Robert Schumann, performed by exceptional artists gathered around pianist Minsoo Sohn, one of the revelations of the 2025 Verbier Festival.
Far from Schumann’s usual melancholy, the Second Trio displays a Mozartean freshness. The waltz-like third movement is a case in point, as is the tranquil atmosphere that pervades the first. The reference to classicism is also expressed in the thematic material, which is relatively sparing and plays on the rhetorical devices of imitation.
The melody of its slow movement has brought the Piano Quartet by the same Schumann to great acclaim. It has to be said that it is based on two of the most moving devices in musical writing: the descending march and the interval of the seventh, a gentle dissonance that is avoided and then repeated before landing on a delicate chromaticism. This masterpiece should not obscure the other marvels that abound in this singular Quartet: the ingenious opening chorale and the frenzied march in the Finale.
