Beethoven composed five string trios between his last moments in Bonn and 1798, and with which he practiced before tackling the string quartet. Still quite conventional, a little long no doubt, but endearing enough to interest amateurs of the genre. Much more accomplished, and already more personal, the last three, which date from 1796-1798 and were published under the same number Opus 9, are undeniably worth knowing. It is significant that Beethoven considered this opus, at the time of its publication, as « the best of his works ». These three trios indeed demonstrate a freedom and audacity not far removed from those of the very first trios with piano and string quartets, and one cannot remain insensitive to the expressive luxuriance of Opus 9 no 1 (in G major), to the changing moods of Opus 9 no 2 (in D major), and even less doubtless to the intensity, to the force of feeling of Opus 9 no 3 (in C minor), the most ardent, and the most innovative in terms of writing. *Lucien*
