The young and talented Trio Contrastes devotes its first CD to four modern works of lasting and irresistible appeal. From Khachaturian’s shimmering and exotic youthful work, to Bartók’s energetic and virtuosic Contrasts, composed for Benny Goodman and Jószef Szigeti, to Stravinsky’s seldom-heard Suite for violin, clarinet and piano taken from his famous Soldier’s Tale, and ending with the much-loved Klezmer’s Wedding, full of Hebraic charm and humour, by the prolific Canadian composer Srul Irving Glick, this disc displays all the expressive capacities of this wonderful, colourful instrumental combination.
