Fidelio Trio - Bulb

The Fidelio Trio has never been content to accept the piano trio repertory as they found it; soloists in their own right, with a special enthusiasm for contemporary music, the Trio brings the medium of piano trio back to life and straight into the twenty-first century with these four works, three of which were specially written for the ensemble.

Ed Bennett's for Marcel Dzama extends the soundworld of the piano trio with electronic sound and interference, while Donnacha Dennehy's driving Bulb and the extended patterns of Kevin Volans' Piano Trio contrast with Deirdre Gribbin's more lyrical How to make the water sound, with its meditative centre and distant echoes of plainchant.
