Trio Viaggio's self-titled album is a delightful collection of classical and contemporary pieces, performed with precision and passion. The trio, comprising of violinist, pianist, and cellist, displays a remarkable synergy that elevates each piece to new heights.
The album opens with Beethoven's Piano Trio No. 7 in B-flat major, Op. 97, "Archduke", a complex and challenging piece that requires a great deal of technical skill and musical sensitivity. Trio Viaggio handles it with ease, delivering a powerful and emotional performance that captures the essence of Beethoven's genius.
The rest of the album offers a mix of classical and contemporary works, including pieces by Brahms, Ravel, and Piazzolla. Each piece is given its due, with the trio bringing out the nuances and subtleties of the music with precision and grace.
One of the highlights of the album is Astor Piazzolla's "Oblivion," a hauntingly beautiful piece that showcases the trio's ability to create a rich and evocative atmosphere. The interplay between the three instruments is particularly impressive, with each member contributing to the overall sound in a unique and meaningful way.
