Jean-Yves Thibaudet, Lisa Batiashvili & Gautier Capuçon

Overview
Three superstar virtuosos team up to perform piano trios spanning three centuries. Delight in the wit and virtuosity of Haydn, the exquisite colors and Basque folk rhythms of Ravel and the rich melodies of Mendelssohn. “What impressed most was the perfect balance between the three: Capuçon’s rich walnut tone, Batiashvili’s leaner, lyrical sweetness and Thibaudet’s lightly pedaled luminosity” (Bachtrack).
