The Busch Trio, which emerged over 10 years ago from a friendship between three students at London's Royal College of Music and already has seven recordings to its name, is named after the legendary Adolf Busch, on whose G. B. Guadagnini violin Mathieu van Bellen has the honor of playing. Van Bellen and the Epstein brothers - Omri on piano and Ori on cello - are now embarking on their ambitious project to record the complete Beethoven piano trios. The first set contains the Trios op. 1 (Nos. 1 and 3), the first compositions by the young Beethoven, who had left his home town of Bonn in 1792 to study with Haydn in Vienna. Although Beethoven did not write a concerto for a wind instrument, he composed a lot of chamber music for woodwinds, including the Trio in B flat major for piano, clarinet and violoncello (1798), which he arranged so that the clarinet part could also be played on the violin. The playful theme of the variations in the finale earned the trio the nickname "Gassenhauer".
