Chamber Music

GEORGE PARKER  (Baritone) 
THE CANADIAN TRIO: 
Ida Nelson (Violin); Sara Nelson (Violoncello); 
Anna Nelson (Pianoforte)   
Beethoven's early trios were written, of course, in his first period, the Imitation Period, as it has been called. The set published as Opus 1 contains three trios written obviously under the influence of Haydn. There is nothing remarkable in this; Haydn at that time was the first composer in Europe and every young composer naturally took him as a model. Beethoven himself admitted as much : ' My first three trios,' he said, ' were not published in the form in which I originally wrote them. When I re-read the manuscripts I wondered at my folly in collecting into a single work materials enough for twenty. When a beginner, I should have perpetrated the most egregious follies in composition but for Papa Haydn 's advice.'   
This Trio is known as the Diimky. This word is the plural of Dumka, which is a word of Russian origin occasionally used by Dvorak in reference to movements in slow tempo of a somewhat melancholy character. Such a movement has the further characteristic of alternating melancholy with a wild gaiety. This trio is not in the usual form, but consists of a number of short movements linked together by a mood of similar, somewhat poignant, expression. The whole work has something of the simplicity of folk-song, and in the tone colour, which is varied throughout, a master of instrumental technique is revealed.
