ISMN: 979-0-080-14603-3

As a follow-up to their recently published volume of "Romantic Trio Music for Beginners", the editorial team Árpád Pejtsik and Lajos Vigh now present another volume of string trios. This time they have selected from the period of the viennese classics, mainly from the music of the three great viennese classical composers Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven, and have transcribed the pieces for two violins and a cello (the second violin may be replaced by a viola). The volume includes Beethoven s famous turkish march and such special items as, for example, five 18th-century Hungarian dances. Every work can be played in the first position on all three instruments.Thus, together with theclassical and romantic string quartets and piano quartets, and the classical and romantic piano trios, every major instrumental chamber ensemble is represented in the series. The title-page of each volume is illustrated with a drawing by János Kass.
