All three composers on this program took inspiration from folk music traditions. Eastern European Chassidic melodies inspired Schoenfeld’s Trio for Clarinet, Violin and Piano, highlighting the popular dance rhythms of klezmer music, while Babajanian’s dramatic and moody Piano Trio is rooted in the folk music of his native Armenia. The theme of Grieg’s astonishingly rich, and almost orchestral String Quartet, takes its inspiration from Norwegian folk tales and Hardanger fiddle music.
