$20
Faith Wasson, flute; Karis Dharmawirya, violin; Leigh Brown, cello
The London Trios were a gift from Haydn to the Baron of Aston in Preston, outside of London in 1794. The uncommon instrumentation of flutes and cello during this time period was very well received, as the flute was growing very popular in England and considered quite fashionable. Unfortunately, the popularity of the trios quickly faded and they weren’t performed much again until the early 1900s. Originally composed for two flutes and cello, the trios are often performed by a variety of different configurations.
