After the intermission, we turn to Ludwig van Beethoven’s Piano Trio No. 5 in D major, Op. 70 No. 1, nicknamed the “Ghost Trio.” A true gem of the chamber music repertoire, this work balances lightness, humor, and dramatic depth. The three instruments engage in dialogue with exceptional energy and complicity: every phrase and accent highlights the virtuosity and sensitivity of the performers. The striking contrasts between playful passages and intensely lyrical moments captivate the listener, offering a musical experience that is both vibrant and deeply moving. The trio becomes a journey into Beethoven’s inspiration, where poetry and expressive power meet in a performance of rare intensity.
