Wilhelm Berger - Clarinet Trio, Op. 94 (1903)

[@ronaldbwoodall2628]

Berger must have been in a jolly, optimistic mood when he created this gorgeous Trio. It is certainly a delight to hear, and deserves great popularity and many performances. (I wonder how many compositions Richard Muhlfeld commissioned or inspired composers to write? He must have been a truly great clarinetist.)

Expertly written and Brahmsy in all the best ways. What a lovely piece.

Really great opening to this piece, and it stays great the whole way through

Not ever having heard this composer before, I was impressed and can't fail to notice a certain stylistic similarity with Rachmaninoff. I am mentioning the 2nd piano concerto in particular. I note that the two composers lives overlapped and the R- 2nd piano concerto premiered several years before the Berger trio. Russia and Germany are neighbors and Berger almost certainly was aware of Rachmaninoff. But a difference can be noted as Berger's greater use of dissonance vs. Rachmaninoff's lush romantic melodies which I ununderstand at the time were considered by critics to be going somewhat out of fashion.

Wunderschöne und detaillierte Interpretation dieses spätromantischen und perfekt komponierten Trios in verschiedenen Tempi mit mildem Ton der Klarinette, tiefem Ton des Violoncellos und klarem Klang des Klaviiers. Der zweite Satz klingt besonders schön und echt elegisch. Die intime und perfekt entsprechende Miteinanderwirkung zwischen den drei Virtuosen ist echt ergreifend. Alles ist perfekt!

Never had an idea - hauntingly beautiful!

I love the 3/4 time superimposed over the 5/4

A fine effort.but time is Just..

Sicherlich eine spannende Komposition (Kreation), aber mit Musik hat dies, meines Erachtens sehr wenig zu tun. Pardon my candor . . .

[@fransmeersman2334]

Dear Karin, maybe try for my sake his piano trio no 2 op.100 once. Believe me I like your candor very much. Very kindly, Frans.

Ich bin damit einverstanden...True, a rare, exquisite vintage echo of The Golden Schwäbisch Age!
