Smetana TrioAbout
Their Tchaikovsky, however, surprises with a naturalness and torrential expressivity akin to that which in the case of Dvořák’s Dumky and Piano Trio No.3 in F minor earned enthusiastic reviews and accolades (BBC Music Magazine Award 2007).
Tchaikovsky’s Piano Trio in A minor (one of the longest piano trios there is) was composed as a tribute to the recently decease Nikolai Rubinstein, and can be understood as the composer’s attempt at overcoming his personal antipathy to the sonic combination of piano with violin or cello. The Smetana Trio have grasped it with passion and apprehension of the “broad Slavonic soul”.
The Smetana Trio, comprising the magnificent Jitka Čechová on piano, Jana Vonášková’s tender and passionate violin, and the sturdy underpinning of Jan Páleníček’s vibrant cello, are today considered one of the very finest ensembles of their ilk.
