Beethoven - Piano Trio Op. 1 No. 3 in C minor
Cathy Likhuta - New work
Brahms - Piano Trio No. 2, Op. 87

Beethoven’s first opus was a set of 3 piano trios. After their premiere performance, Haydn advised Beethoven to hold off publishing the third in the set – the trio in C minor – on account of its ‘boldness’. In spite of the advice, Beethoven published the sonata along with the others and it was a hit with the public. This concert also features a work by Australian-based pianist and composer, Cathy Likhuta, who holds a PhD in composition from the University of Queensland.

** Duration | Approximately ninety minutes, including a twenty-minute interval.
