Ireland IRELAND'S FANTASY TRIO, a comparatively early work, presents no difficulty at all to the listener. From beginning to end, it is frankly melodious. There are four sections, although the work is played without a break. The violoncello begins the first with a fine broad melody, which the violin afterwards takes up. It is heard more than once at later stages of the Trio, and notably in the third section, which is largely a repetition of the first. The second is the only slow part, and the last is very lively.
