Sibelius wrote this trio for violin, cello and piano in the summer of 1888 at the villa of his aunt in Lovisa, his favourite summer retreat. It was written for the family trio in which Jean played the violin, his sister the piano and his brother the cello. In this work Sibelius has left classicism behind and adopted an air of melancholy romanticism. |
