About
This CD is the last in the series of the Gryphon Trio’s recordings of the Beethoven Piano Trios. The ensemble has been hailed by audience and critics alike, both in Canada and on the international scene. The Gryphon Trio is just as much at ease performing the contemporary repertoire, notably through commissions and premieres of new works, as it is playing classical masterworks.
