About

Founded over 60 years ago by Menahem Pressler, Daniel Guilet and Bernard Greenhouse, the Beaux Arts Trio performed and recorded exclusively for Philips Classics until 1995. Through the years, the Trio has maintained its freshness and preserved its distinctive musical heritage while the membership has changed.

The Beaux Arts Trio is considered by many as having set the standard for performance of piano trio literature for all future generations.  These three boxes offer a more accessible way to enjoy their complete cycles of Beethoven, Mozart and Haydn piano trios, previously collected together in Decca’s 60-CD Complete Philips Recordings.

"The gold standard for trios throughout the world."
- The Washington Post

Contents:
The Complete Haydn Piano Trios (1971-1978)
- Isidore Cohen (violin), Bernard Greenhouse (cello), Menahem Pressler (piano)

Reviews

... the playing of the Beaux Arts Trio is of the very highest musical distinction. The contribution of the pianist, Menahem Pressler, is inspired, and the recorded sound on CD is astonishingly lifelike. ... this is a set no Haydn lover should miss: it is desert island music.
