Overview
The Austrian Eggner Trio, a family ensemble of three brothers, performs works by Mozart which helped to define the piano trio genre. The programme includes the Piano Trio in C, simple in its design and harmony yet emotionally complex, as well as a score by the hugely gifted Johann Nepomuk Hummel, a child prodigy who became Mozart’s only full-time pupil in 1786.
