Violinist Joshua Bell reunites with two of his favorite collaborating artists and friends - cellist Steven Isserlis and pianist Jeremy Denk - for Sony Classical's new recording of the piano trios of Felix Mendelssohn, to be released worldwide on August 30. The first track from the forthcoming recording - Piano Trio No. 1 in D Minor, Op. 49: II. Andante con moto tranquillo - will be released on August 9, 2024. - Of the new Mendelssohn Piano Trio recording, Joshua Bell notes: "Steven Isserlis and Jeremy Denk have been my most cherished chamber music partners for decades. They bring seemingly limitless imaginations and uncanny musical intelligence to every work I have had the privilege of exploring with them. It is my hope that our mutual joy for playing chamber music and, in particular, our shared deep love for the genius of Felix Mendelssohn comes through in this recording of these Piano Trios. I am forever grateful for having the opportunity to make this album." - The two Mendelssohn trios - No. 1 in D Minor, Op. 49 (1839) and No. 2 in C Minor, Op. 66 (1845) - are regarded as being among the composer's masterpieces. Interestingly, the writing of the first trio tested even Mendelssohn's genius, as the second would, as well. With that in mind, listeners to this recording will find a revelatory bonus track - the original version of the song-like second movement (Andante con moto tranquillo) of Piano Trio No.
