During the first week of September, Liz, Allison, and Stephanie recorded 7 new string trios for Vol. 2 of Discovering the Classical String Trio.  As in vol. 1, the set of trios comprises works rarely performed, and most of them never before recorded.  One trio in particular by Ignaz Klausek, is a special discovery.  This work, in the unusual key of Bb minor, is part of the Moravian Music Foundation's Philharmonic Society of Bethlehem Collection and has likely not been played for more than 200 years.  Other works recorded are by J.C. Bach, C.A. Campioni, Joseph Haydn, F. J. Gossec, and J.B. Breval.  In addition we have included a trio sonata by our namesake Antonio Vivaldi as a link to the classical string trio's heredity.  We cannot wait to hear the sound that Richard Price of Candlewood Digital was able to capture from our recording session.
