The 250th anniversary of Beethoven’s birth is the occasion for so many special programs around the world. Arte Musica offers us a superb selection of Beethoven, including the following series of chamber music concerts. The first program of this series offers us two trios. The first is the trio of three French virtuosos, violinist David Grimal, cellist Anne Gastinel and pianist Philippe Cassard, and the second is the Montreal trio of violinist Axel Strauss, violist Douglas McNabney and cellist Matt Haimovitz. Two trios and a quartet on the program, adding up to an intersection of perspectives. The two trios will also share the same stage on March 14, for another program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
