XV:18 (14’) Allegro moderato Andante Allegro BRAHMS Trio for Clarinet, Cello and Piano in A minor, Op. 114 (25’) Allegro Adagio Andantino grazioso Allegro — INTERMISSION — MENDELSSOHN Trio for Piano, Violin and Cello in C minor, Op. 66 (31’) Allegro energico e con fuoco Andante espressivo Scherzo: Molto allegro quasi presto Finale: Allegro appassionato Notes on the Program by Dr. Richard E. Rodda Trio No. 32 for Piano, Violin and Cello in A major, H. XV:18 Joseph Haydn (1732-1809) Composed in 1794. The history of the piano is far more than the mere recounting of the mechanical and technical development of an instrument — it is a virtual microcosm of the progress of modern Western civilization. The first keyboard instrument capable of responding to the varying touch of the player was the gravicembalo col piano e forte (“harpsichord with soft and loud”), invented in Florence in 1709 by Bartolomeo Cristofori. Cristofori’s instrument, whose sound was activated by a hammer thrown against a string according to the force of the pressure applied at the keyboard, allowed for gradations of dynamics that were impossible on the plucked-string harpsichord and was well suited to the growing demand for music that would more intimately mirror the passionate expression of the performer. It took Cristofori more than a decade to perfect the mechanism and several more years for various manufacturers to establish their trade in the instruments, but by the time Johann Sebastian Bach played one of the new fortepianos on his visit to the court of Frederick the Great at Berlin in 1747, he was able to declare his enthusiasm for it. -

“Composer Debut”
PROGRAM NOTES by Robert Rival Beethoven@250 with the Gryphon Trio December 10, 2020 – 7:30 p.m. EST “COMPOSER DEBUT” Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827) Piano Trio in E-flat, Op. 1, No. 1 Piano Trio in G, Op. 1, No. 2 Piano Trio in C minor, Op. 1, No. 3 In late 1792, just one year after Mozart’s death, Beethoven arrived in Vienna. There, he hoped to make good on Count Ferdinand Waldstein’s prophecy: “with the help of assiduous labour you shall receive Mozart’s spirit from Haydn’s hands.” But in his first year in the great city of culture, Beethoven composed nothing of importance. Not even a year of lessons with Haydn, the gatekeeper of the Classical style, bore any fruit. That is, until the great master left for England in January 1794. Only then did his young pupil immerse himself in work. “This year must determine the complete man,” wrote Beethoven in his diary. “Nothing must remain undone.” He dug up some old sketches from Bonn and dashed off new material to produce a set of three piano trios. Each of considerable scope, they demonstrated his absorption of the Classical style (in part thanks to Haydn’s tutelage) and hinted at future innovations. The adventurous key plan of Op. 1, No. 2 (the Largo is unexpectedly in E major) mimics that of Haydn’s contemporaneous “Gypsy Trio,” also in G major. And in its cleverly-disguised recapitulation, the Presto finale contains another Haydnism: with all ears on the piano’s meandering octaves, in slips the principal theme on the violin. -
