The Friends presents an exceptional evening celebrating the piano trio, featuring three of today’s most esteemed artists. Joining forces in Kansas City are pianist Wu Han, honored as Musical America’s Musician of the Year; violinist Daniel Hope, internationally acclaimed soloist and former member of the legendary Beaux Arts Trio; and cellist David Finckel, former member of the Grammy Award-winning Emerson String Quartet. The program opens with a sparkling trio by Joseph Haydn, the father of the form, followed by Beethoven’s bold and groundbreaking Op. 1 no. 1 — his first published work. The evening concludes with Dvořák’s beloved Dumky Trio, rich and emotional. Together, these masterpieces chart the piano trio’s evolution from Classical elegance to its late Romantic pinnacle.
