Franz Schubert – at the 10th anniversary!

We are happy to have nearly completed a decade of common Alba years. We will celebrate this achievement next year in performances at Innsbruck, Wien, Heidelberg, Bern, Sion, Bogotà, and Merano with one of the most wonderful works for piano trio ever written, the trio in E-flat major by Franz Schubert.

The trio is the first work we have studied together, and we played it at our very first public performance on 27 January 2009. Our ensemble’s name is inspired by it and we continue further to develop with it.

Apart from Schubert’s E-flat major trio, works by Schumann and Smetana will be on the program, and in Belgium, Holland, Berlin, Grafenegg and Columbia compositions by Brahms, Beethoven, Clara Schumann, Felix Mendelssohn, Mel Bonis, Vasks, and Hüttenbrenner will be performed.
