Info for Chic à la française



Das Trio Atanassov hat Stücke eingespielt, die ihm in den letzten Jahren zu treuen Begleitern geworden sind. Die Auswahl steht für eine bestimmte Idee der französischen Musik:komponiert mit Klarheit, Eleganz und Finesse, virtuos und brillant zugleich, und durchdrungen von einem reichen Gespür für Farbe und Proportion.

Philippe Hersants Trio-Variationen über ein Thema von Marin Marais ver- binden den Gambisten des Sonnenkönigs mit dem 21. Jahrhundert. Kein Werk repräsentiert nach der Meinung des Ensembles den sogenannten »Chic à la française« in der Musik besser als Ravels Trio. Zwischen Lebhaftigkeit und vornehmer Zurückhaltung verkörpere es die perfekte Eleganz. In Debussys frühem Trio entdecken die Musiker eine subtile Atmosphäre der Nuancen, die ein wiederholtes Hören lohnend machen.

Trio Atanassov



Trio Atanassov
Besides winning the 2010 International Commerzbank Chamber Music Competition in Frankfurt and the 2015 “Franz Schubert and Modern Music” Competition in Graz, the Trio Atanassov has been awarded numerous other prizes in major piano trio competitions around the world, including the Osaka International Chamber Music Competition in Japan, the Trondheim International Competition in Norway, the Haydn Competition in Vienna, the Joseph Joachim International Chamber Music Competition in Weimar, the Vibrarte Competition and the FNAPEC Competition in Paris.

Although successful as soloists, the musicians decided to found the Trio in 2007, after they graduated from the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Paris. The Trio has been a member of the European Chamber Music Academy since June 2008 and has been particularly marked by the musical influence of its artistic director, Hatto Beyerle. The trio attended many other masterclasses and could get the advice of musical masters such Ferenc Rados, Menahem Pressler, Ysaye Quartet, Hagen Quartet, Jean Paul Trio, etc. The Trio Atanassov has also won recognition from the critics: "...talent, enthusiasm and an unusually strong artistic collusion." (Le Journal de Saône-et-Loire) "An always controlled interpretation, technically sure from every point of view" (Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung)

The Trio Atanassov is now one of France’s most prominent young ensembles, regularly touring France and throughout the rest of Europe.

The Trio released its first CD in 2013 (Smetana & Dvorak, Hänssler Classic). This recording met with great critical acclaim, was elected "France Musique's Choice", and was awarded a DIAPASON D’OR.

In 2016, the trio will be on the roads of France, Belgium, Germany, Switzerland and Italy : Contemporary Music Society of Lausanne - Festival international de Colmar - Septembre Musical de l’Orne - Estivales de Musique en Médoc - Festival Estival de Trélazé - Festival du Vigan - Rencontres musicales ProQuartet ... 2017 will see the trio's debut in the Vienna's Musikverein, and the release of a new album (with the label Megadisc Classics), dedicated to the armenian composer Vache Sharafyan.

Offering a fresh outlook on the piano trio: Extending from Haydn trios to the newest works of the 21st century, the repertoire of the trio Atanassov covers a vast period of time and spreads over a wide range of musical traditions.

Emphasis is placed of course on the main works from the long history of this venerable instrumental setting (Haydn, Mozart, Schubert, Mendelssohn, Schumann, Dvorak, Brahms, Ravel), but the piano trio has kept fascinating composers over the years – a series of outstanding works were composed during the last decades, the strong originality of which breathed new life into the old model.

Thus, imaginative and full of personality, the trio Atanassov perpetuates and freshens up the tradition of piano trio by putting forward unique compositions that cross cultures and have their roots in the most various musical influences.
