The program features Beethoven’s little-known quartet in C for piano, violin, viola and cello, written when the composer was just 15 and modeled on a piano sonata by Mozart.
The String Trio by Taneyev, composed in 1880, received praise by the great Tchaikovsky who said, "I have examined at the entire work and am amazed at the composer's skill."
The 2 p.m. concert closes with one of Dvořák’s most beloved works for piano, violin and cello, the “Dumky” Trio.
