The NZTrio is recognised as a “national treasure” and “New Zealand’s most indispensable ensemble” (NZ Herald). Genre-busting in identity, the NZTrio present a diverse array of works that challenge expectations of traditional chamber music.
Lyell Cresswell’s virtuosic Moto Perpetuo opens, ahead of percussive and electronic influences in Le Boeuf’s jazz-adjacent Obliquely Wrecked. Fauré’s Piano Trio in D minor exhibits lyrical elegance, with lush harmonic textures, and Australian composer Elena Kats-Chernin pays homage to Haydn, blending classical and contemporary styles in Calliope Dreaming. Schönberg’s immersive finale Verklärte Nacht closes - a Romantic work structured around the five stanzas of a poem; deeply transcendent and utterly beautiful.
Programme:
Lyell Cresswell Moto perpetuo
Pascal Le Boeuf Obliquely Wrecked
Gabriel Fauré Piano Trio in D minor, Op. 120
Elena Kats-Chernin Calliope Dreaming
