Program: Dmitri Shostakovich: Piano Trio No. 1 in C minor, Op. 8; Claude Debussy: Piano Trio in G major, L. 5; Antonín Dvořák: Piano Trio No. 3 in F minor, Op. 65 Performers: Lisa Batiashvili (violin); Gautier Capuçon (cello); Jean-Yves Thibaudet (piano) “Jean-Yves Thibaudet’s piano, Lisa Batiashvili’s violin and Gautier Capuçon’s cello [stitch] their individual strands of sound into a sumptuous fabric” ( The Arts Desk ) during a night of Russian, French, and Czech music. Join three of the Los Angeles Philharmonic’s most beloved guest soloists as they come together for a selection of expressive chamber works. Shostakovich’s trio evokes the agitated yearning of teenage romance, while Debussy’s trio brings out the “sweet, sentimental and sugared” ( The New York Times ) aspects of youth. Thibaudet, Batiashvili, and Capuçon close out their recital with a dark, aggressive, and fast-paced Dvořák trio from the era critic Eduard Hanslick deemed “the pinnacle of his career.”
