Joseph Haydn's piano trios are among his lesser-known masterpieces. The four recorded here (two with flute, two with violin) were written between 1784 and 1790, during the composer's last years in the service of Prince Esterh�zy, in his full artistic maturity. What is striking on listening to them is the richness of the composer's imagination, inviting us to travel a new path each time, in turn brilliant and serious, profound and light.
