"With its distinctive head motif Mozart's Piano Quartet in G minor KV 478 crashes just as on stage as in the classic drama of a messenger with terrible news. The bitter tone in which the weight of the composition appropriate sonority, but above all was in excellent balance with the The Gaede Trio and the Austrian pianist Markus Schirmer is conceivable thrilling start to the evening of chamber music at the Frankfurt Museum Society in the Mozart-Saal of the Alte Oper. With its pleasantly dry, clear and yet very emotional game Schirmer yielded to the growing harmony of the String Trio optimally in highly differentiated in the Andante, playful, light-footed, with wit and charm in the final rondo. deigning him a break, sat down Selditz Thomas (violin), Felix Schwartz (viola) and Andreas Greger (cello) with the Serenade C Major for String Trio, Op 10 by Ernst von Dohnányi, then passionately about a rarity. Dvorák's Piano Quartet in E flat major, Op 87 was the high point in the soon-contrast enhanced combative, sometimes conciliatory gestures, its delicate lyricism and almost orchestral culminations.

Gaede The three musicians played confidently and in every detail lebenssprühend. "

"Interestingly, it was with the string trio 'Le Chimay' by Eugene Ysaye. The plant makes high demands on the musicians, none of them is easier than our neighbor. With the urgency, diligence and skill of the trio tied this individual mix of nostalgic retrospective and recalcitrant modernism. The Trio in C Major describes chamber, as is typical of Jean Francaix: Always witty, funny, full of wit and beautiful ideas, gambling-happy and very grateful for musicians and audiences (. This fascinating blend of a wonderfully melancholy breathed adagio ) and Mediterranean lightness was the trio. It was played extensively in the Technical sovereignly and full identification. "

... Facets of wealth and sophisticated technology, they were playing with the string trio version of Bach's "Goldberg Variations"

At the heart of the program should be the String Trio in A minor op.77b out by Reger. At the Kunsthalle his String Trio was an event. The "Gaede Trio" took the approach in this four-movement work between Spätestromantik outdated and compositional spelling reach agreement: The Sostenuto with fast insertions, explosive accents and floating sound develop holistically. In the Larghetto the melody flowed force, thoughtful, in religious rhetoric. Before the principles enshrined in the vicinity of the final sentence of that tonal Scherzo from which one can not believe that it is from Reger, then took it out for a rustic "Gaede" skill. Big applause, bravos, flowers for the artists!

Chamber is under conservation. At least in times of ever-faster and brighter concert event celebrates the cultural critique every little insignificant trio or quartet. It wraps the cloak of silence about the fact that censorship is practiced most of the audience, given top heavy programs in cultivated boredom. You yawn, watch holes in the ceiling of the hall and crave only one thing Herbei - the end. None of solemn tension was now being felt in the Schumann Hall, as the Gaede Trio with a classical-romantic program, the public out of its winter sluggishness pulled out ... Your solo talent and a penchant for virtuosity, they live in their trio of programs that combines accompanied by Markus Schirmer, the grace and strength to elicit the Steinway glowing chords.

"" This disc, the sixth in a valuable series trios from Tacet, features stylish, stimulating playing from an emerging world-class ensemble, the Gaede Trio. It is boldly programmed, juxtaposing Beethoven's truly glorious D major trio - which dates from 1797-98, the time of the early quarters, and not long before his ballet, The Creatures of Prometheus, who made him a talking point of Vienna - and Mozart's deft treatment , at much the same age, of a Bach Prelude and Fugue. These are side by side with two well-contrasted works by 20th-century figures, the French chamber music composer Jean Francaix (1912-97) and the Viennese avant-garde, Ernst Krenek, who in his day (1900-91) made as much of a splash as Beethoven in his. The subtle contrasts in this richly rewarding Beethoven trio must be attributed to the masterly composer himself, but the Gaede Trio's loyalty to Beethoven's design and attention to every detail and nuance (just hear the opening of the Andante and the same movement's almost whispered later evolution) make the reading, Peppered with exquisite ensemble playing, highly memorable. I find the group's flair matches Mozart's arrangement of the Bach Fugue a lot better than the preceding Prelude, whose treatment feels nervily over-pointed. No such problem in the Francaix, a superb, spirited 1930s work with no less than three vivace embracing an exquisite, shy Andante. Well worth discovering. The Krenek - a tribute to Bach's Bicentenary - is more polytonally pointilliste and fares better in the more urgent, vital sections than in the slightly elusive, questing passages. The recorded sound is agreeably lucid. "(Roderic Dunnett)"

 

"... The 3 combined beauty of tone with the strictest shading, fine vote of tone color, always clear layers, always clearly marked construction. This was the uniform and soulful understanding of music: So three technically virtuosic soloists blended into a whole."

"... high level of musicality and masterful combination of persuasive technique of all three. The Haydn Trio Hob V: 8, the audience almost verschlug breath! [...] Perfect music."

"... impressively pure, wonderfully transparent sound, in pianissimo, they were heard only as a breath, in beautiful harmony, carefully managed."

"High precision, large wealth of nuances in the phrasing, and a congenial communication between them were prominent features in the interaction."

"... The Gaede Trio bribed in his presentation with a solo run cantilenas, PLAYING with very high speed and rhythmic precision."

"Together with the excellent Austrian pianist Markus Schirmer, the trio made music with such an overwhelming expressive power that the audience was torn up and either forget everything around them and absorbed in the Klangsog or is listening on the surprising twists and subtle nuances that any new
Phrase entailed. [...] About Schirmer said one critic, each wing would marry him immediately on the spot. The Gaede Trio would you like to marry. "

"It is not clear what to admire more: the sonic characteristics that clear-cut profile of the interaction, the technical superiority, or the musical shape that made each work, each new set of it becoming a Neubegegnung."

"The game of the Gaede Trio is marked by the combination analytically audibly sensitive interpretation and perception of sound."

"Perfect form is dealing with old and new masters of the violin ... ... Daniel Gaede does with his body while floating piano and the remaining in the upper octaves to gänsehauterregenden enjoyment ...
... an aesthetically and stylistically sophisticated pleasure ... "

"In the world of nuances and subtleties that is theirs, everyone's so sensitive one for the (purchase) of other emotions that chamber music is here for the stylistically sophisticated acoustic and aesthetic pleasure."
