Greenwich Trio & Boris Bizjak

A classical evening at Conway Hall in London, where the Greenwich Trio is joined by flautist Boris Bizjak for works by Beethoven, Nino Rota, Richard Sisson and Rachmaninoff.

The Greenwich Trio is an international classical piano trio performing instrumental music, formed in 2006. Its first album, Shostakovich, was released in 2010. For this programme the ensemble is joined by flautist Boris Bizjak, whom Gramophone has praised for his freshness and originality.

The evening opens with Beethoven's Ghost Trio, which gave the work its nickname. Bizjak then joins the ensemble for Nino Rota's playful trio and for Richard Sisson's witty Amo, Amas, Amat. The programme closes with Rachmaninoff's Trio élégiaque, a work described as both youthful and grief-stricken.

The concert suits listeners who enjoy a varied chamber evening, moving from Beethoven's opening trio through the lighter humour of Rota and Sisson to Rachmaninoff's elegiac finale. The performance takes place at Conway Hall, a London concert venue.
