Beethoven’s Opus 1: Three Groundbreaking Trios

Step into 1795 Vienna and experience the debut of Beethoven’s groundbreaking Opus 1 piano trios—his first published works. With these trios, Beethoven transformed the genre from piano-focused pieces into expansive chamber pieces, giving the violin and cello independent, expressive voices. Performed by three of the world’s leading early music specialists— Alan Choo (violin), Jaap ter Linden (cello), and David Breitman (fortepiano)—this program celebrates the bold arrival of a brilliant young composer on the rise.
