of his residency in Vienna. That trio is presented here along with Beethoven’s own piano trio
arrangement of his Second Symphony in D major, Op. 36 and the Allegretto in B-flat major, WoO
39. The Atlantis Trio provides masterful interpretations on instruments of Beethoven’s period. |

Winterreise, D.911 |

Max van Egmond (baritone) & Penelope Crawford (fortepiano) |

This is, by general consent, the greatest of all Lieder cycles, and the second that Schubert based on Müller’s poems. Max van Egmond and Penelope Crawford here present a profoundly moving performance, enhanced by the use of an original 1835 fortepiano by the great Viennese maker, Conrad Graf. |

FELIX MENDELSSOHN |
|
|
THE YOUNG FELIX MENDELSSOHN |
|
|
The Atlantis Ensemble -
Jaap Schröder |
|
|
Conventional wisdom has it that Felix Mendelssohn came into his own as a composer at the age of
16 in 1825, with the composition of his string Octet and the Overture to “A Midsummer Night’s
Dream”. This release, the final volume of the Atlantis Ensemble’s Mendelssohn 2009 project, reveals
the lesser-known riches among the works written by young Felix in the years immediately preceding,
1822-1824. Jaap Schröder and his colleagues take us directly into the prosperous Mendelssohn
household of the 1820s, a remarkable environment that nurtured young Felix, the prodigy. |

|
Franz Schubert - Piano Trios, Op. 99 & 100 |
|
|
The Atlantis Ensemble - Penelope Crawford (fortepiano), Jaap Schröder (violin), Enid Sutherland (cello) |

Schubert’s two piano trios are among the crowning achievements of early 19th century
chamber music. They date from the final two years of the composer’s short life and
inspired similar compositions for the same ensemble by Mendelssohn and Schumann.
In this newly re-mastered release of their celebrated recording, the Atlantis Trio
provides benchmark performances on instruments of the period. |
