Schubert Piano Trios February 14, 2010

David Finckel, cello
Wu Han, piano
Philip Setzer, violin

A true Valentine’s Day love-fest, when two members of the Emerson String Quartet, cellist David Finckel and violinist Philip Setzer, join forces with pianist Wu Han for an all-too-rare performance of Schubert’s piano trios. Schubert, who died in 1828 at the untimely age of 31,wrote the two piano trios around the same time that Beethoven was working on his final series of quartets.

· Schubert : Piano Trio in B-flat Major, Op. 99, D. 898 (1828)
· Schubert : Piano Trio in E-flat Major, Op. 100, D. 929 (1827)
