Piano Trio In E Minor Op.12 Violin, Cello, Piano E MINOR - Luigi Boccherini (P. Bormann)

Luigi Boccherini (1743-1805), was an Italian composer and cellist, primarily known for his distinctive and imaginatively designed chamber music. This lovely piano trio (for Violin, Cello and Piano) is characteristic of his early style, which is very much of the classical period. Dating from the 1770?s, it is three brief movements (Allegro molto, Menuetto affettuoso, Presto) and will be a delight to play. The string parts are not overly challenging and the piano part, while more ornamental, will prove enjoyable for a competent amateur.
