Skewed sound: Igor Levit, Renaud Capuçon and Julia Hagen …

Pianist Igor Levit held back in an extremely polite way: two-thirds of the compositional depth of Brahms’ piano trios lies in the piano part.

“There aren’t three. “Bidh”: That’s what the Altenberg Trio wrote in their album at the time. The interplay between decades of experience and spontaneous renewal, new perspectives and mature homogenous interpretations continues to take on new forms, especially in chamber music. When renowned soloists like Renaud Capuçon, Julia Hagen and Igor Levit perform together, they are in their youth as a trio compared to the Altenbergs, even if their members have changed several times. Because you realize that this doesn’t have to be a real nightmare. But it was unfortunate that in the three piano trios with Johannes Brahms The question of sound balance arose so clearly.
