Mozart - Piano Trios K502, K542 & K564 [The Florestan Trio]

Recorded: May 2005, Henry Wood Hall, London | Released: July 2006 | Label: HYPERION

The Florestan Trio

'Susan Tomes’s sprightly piano is in its element, leading the dance in these three mature trios … Moods change at a flick of Mozart’s wrist, and Tomes, Anthony Marwood and Richard Lester have all the flexibility needed' (The Times)

'These are beautifully judged performances, generally fleeter of foot, airier of texture and more intimate in tone with an ideal balance between the instruments' (Gramophone)

'Superb execution … another feather in the Florestan Trio's cap' (International Record Review)

'As in all their artistic endeavours, this outstanding disc of Mozart piano trios from the acclaimed Florestan Trio demonstrates a delightfully unforced lyricism coupled with the most exquisite, long-lined phrasing … Sample the luminous performance of the central Andante grazioso of the E major trio K.542 to hear chamber music playing of the very highest order' (HMV Choice)

'the Florestan Trio's accounts of the Third, Fourth, and Sixth trios set reference standards for stylish perception, textural transparency, and the kind of sophisticated articulation and motivic interplay that may be preplanned, yet never seems intellectualized...Hyperion's clear, full-bodied, and impeccably-balanced engineering deserves its own rave review.' (Classicstoday.com)

'The Florestan Trio makes this lovely music shimmer with dazzling facility. These are seasoned Mozart interpretations of high order' (Audiophile Ausition) 'The Florestan Trio, whose recording of Mozart Piano Trios prove an unmitigated delight.' (Secrets)

'A delight ... Its virtues, of course, were no surprise. Susan Tomes' Mozartian credentials were richly established with her 2004 recording of the Piano Concertos K413-415 on Hyperion CDA67358 ... Performances as fine as anything ever released of these enchanting works. She is a pianist, and artist, of the front rank' (Piano Magazine)

'The Florestan Trio, with pianist Susan Tomes at her moist beguiling, give a scintillating account of three mature Mozart piano trios on this disc … Whatever the technical intensity of the constituent roles Mozart demands of them, Antony Marwood and Richard Lester are well aware of how to make the best of their contributions. This is musical team-work of a very high order' (The Magazine of the Cambridge Society)

Mozart may not have lavished his piano trios with the same inventiveness, formal daring, and emotional tension that marks his other late-period works. Still, when you play them straight and simply, without reading death's door between the notes, their innate eloquence and subtle harmonic flavors sharpen immensely. As with the Gryphon Trio's splendid cycle on Analekta, the Florestan Trio's accounts of the Third, Fourth, and Sixth trios set reference standards for stylish perception, textural transparency, and the kind of sophisticated articulation and motivic interplay that may be preplanned, yet never seems intellectualized. Echoed phrases, for example, are always taken softer than when first played, but not exaggeratedly so. While a period-instrument aesthetic largely determines the ensemble's timbral and dynamic choices (the strings' long pedal points gain intensity through volume rather than vibrato), their use of modern instruments allows a rarified degree of control and flexibility.

For instance, in K. 502's slow movement, when violinist Anthony Marwood picks up the main theme that pianist Susan Tomes states alone, his full yet vibratoless tone casts an emotional ambiguity that differs from Tomes' subtle inflections. Yet once cellist Richard Lester's supportive lines kick in, so does Marwood's vibrato. I'm also taken with Lester's ability to blend in with Tomes' bass lines like an invisible twin and then suddenly emerge to match Marwood's twists and turns with astonishing unanimity. Looking for some of the most evenly matched trills in the annals of recorded Mozart? Then this is your disc. And it should be your disc, since if you've read this far, I'll assume that you've been inspired to order it! Hyperion's clear, full-bodied, and impeccably-balanced engineering deserves its own rave review. [9/21/2006]
