De L'ombre a la Lumiere

On this new release, The Goldberg Trio presents well-rehearsed string trios by Klein, Weinberg, Dohnányi and Cras. These pieces are some of the most important and interesting contributions to the genre in the 20th century. The Trio Goldberg was founded when three key members of the Monte-Carlo Philharmonic Orchestra (Liza Kerob, Federico Hood, and Thierry Amadi), rich with the diversity of their respective cultural backgrounds, joined forces to create this dynamic and eclectic ensemble. With a repertoire ranging from Mozart to Schnittke, the Trio performs works by Schubert, Enescu, Kodaly, Piazzolla, Sibelius, Jean Francaix, Ysaye, and Ton-That Tiet, among others. It draws it's name from the brilliant transcription by Dmitry Sitkovetsky of J.S. Bach's immortal Goldberg Variations. A passionate devotion to this masterwork soon became the ensemble's trademark and led to a recording that received warm response from the press. Frequently the ensemble collaborates with prestigious musicians such as Patrice Fontanarosa, Regis Pasquier, Olivier Charlier, Gerard Causse, Dominique de Williencourt, Jean Ferrandis, Matan Porat, Iddo Bar-Shai, and Luis Fernando Perez.
