J. Haydn: Baryton Trio in D Major, Hob. XI:113
Complices
Two great musicians and long-term musical partners, both at the top of their game, let their hair down with this delightful encore collection. The choice of music is as surprising and unpredictable as it is magnificently done. From the wit of a Haydn baryton trio movement to Henri Dutilleux’s 3 Strophes sur le nom de Sacher, via David Popper’s sparkling Elfentanz and John Coltrane’s “Alabama”, there is something for everyone. Queyras and Tharaud bring humour and beautifully applied virtuosity to everything they play, and you’ll soon be deciding on your own particular favourite.
