Korngold: Piano Trio - Schoenberg: Verklärte Nacht

A fascinating pairing of two breakthrough works. Schoenberg's Verklarte Nacht was so popular that the composer authorised his former pupil, the pianist Eduard Steuermann, to make the present transcription for piano trio. Korngold's Piano Trio was his first published composition and an amazingly sophisticated work for a boy not yet thirteen.
