Martinu: The Complete Piano Trios / Smetana Trio

This new release presents the complete piano trios of Bohuslav Martinu (1890-1959). The piano trios span two decades of Martinu’s life, and his compositional evolution can be seen as the pieces progress. The Smetana Trio, which consists of pianist Jitka Cechova, violinist Jiri Vodicka, and cellist Jan Palenicek, performs these works brilliantly.
