In a program teeming with contrasts and discoveries, Trio Wanderer (violinist Jean-Marc Phillips-Varjabédian, cellist Raphaël Pidoux, and pianist Vincent Coq) explores French chamber music around the year 1900. The ardent lyricism of Édouard Lalo is represented by his Piano Trio No. 3. Maurice Ravel’s shimmering can be heard in his Piano Trio and his Sonata for Violin and Cello. The young Debussy sounds fresh in his Violin Sonata and Cello Sonata. The poetry of Mel Bonis is revealed in her piano trio Soir – Matin and her Barcarolle for solo piano. Each work reveals some unusual facet of this golden age, creating a wondrous panorama that combines neglected treasures with pillars of the repertoire.
