HERE'S WHY:
Overall something that I really enjoyed watching were the body movements of the players and the ever-so-helpful sheet music page turner. The movements of the pianist were very much in sync with the energy of the music. His movements were smooth and graceful at times and then powerful and percussive at other times. The movement of the violin player was sharp and precise and the movements of the cellist were sharp also but somehow had a little bit softer feel than the violinist. It was evident to see the emotion put into each and every note.
Piano Trio in B Major, Op. 8
The first portion started out very gracefully. (well, the 2nd try at least hehe) As I sat back and listened to the piece I noticed many ridges and valleys in the feel and energy of the song. I was reminded of some electronic techno or trance music as both of these genres draw heavily on the play between high and low energy. The play between all 3 instruments with their own parts and matching parts (sometimes purposefully a beat off) weaved and intricate web, making the piece very interesting to listen to.
The second portion of the show was also quite enjoyable. i found the music this round to be a little more up-tempo and had a bit more of a "poppy-feel" to it. I believe this may have been produced from the thick layering of parts and the added viola. Some works seemed happy and bouncing at times, while at other times the mood was quite soft and even a bit sad and melancholy.
The recital was very fun to watch and listen too.
