Trio ArcheAbout
The four movements of Op.5 abound in richly embroidered, Brahmsian melodies and impassioned statements and developments, free of the naivety that is often a feature of early works. That said, they do embody a certain innocence, a degree of gentleness, even a lightness of spirit that sets them apart from their composer’s study of German models with teachers such as the organist Joseph Rheinberger.
Parts of the Op.7 Trio may in fact have been written before Op.5, but the expression of the three-movement work as a whole is more individual, dominated as it is by a huge opening movement (almost 20 minutes in length), and often coloured by a bitter chromaticism that Wolf-Ferrari would later relinquish in favour of a more light-hearted and lyrical idiom. Here is a technically gifted young composer stretching his creative muscles – and for all the breadth of expression, his writing for the notoriously tricky combination of instruments is notably sympathetic, allowing the two string instruments to flourish without being overwhelmed by the piano.
This new studio album is the second recording of Trio Archè for Brilliant Classics after their well-received debut of trios by another Italian composer, now even less familiar than Wolf-Ferrari, Marco Enrico Bossi (95581). Both albums make a ready-appeal to all those listeners who travel the musical byways of late Romanticism.
Trio Archè:
- Francesco Comisso (violin)
- Dario Destefano (cello)
- Francesco Cipolletta (piano)
