Tres lent 8:26 concert together as an official trio, with a programme that included The Seafarer . 2 Jeux de Vagues. allegro 7:19 3 dialogue du vent et de la mer. anime et tumultueux 8:17 That week, while we worked on the piece and formed ideas for our new ensemble, we became increasingly excited by the idea of challenging what we thought of as Sally BeamiSh (b.1956) conventional trio programming; seeking collaborations which would bring something 4 The Seafarer – for voice and piano trio 28:45 fresh to the genre, and – perhaps most importantly – commissioning new works would be important elements of our future as a group. Total time 52:49 one thing was clear from the very beginning: The Seafarer should be the focal point for our first album. We’d fallen in love with the piece (and the poem) and it represented TRIO APACHES exactly the kind of collaborative repertoire we wanted to explore. a long and fruitless matthew Trusler (violin) search for a suitable sea-related companion piece led us to the conclusion that this Thomas carroll (cello) was the moment for our first commission. asking Sally Beamish to transcribe La Mer ashley Wass (piano) quickly became our favourite idea. Sir Willard White (voice) our proposal was initially met with polite laughter from Sally, but we kept nagging away and soon persuaded her it was something that absolutely had to be done.
