Leguerney's Trio for Violin, Violoncello and Piano published

Musik Fabrik is pleased to announce the publication of Jacques Leguerney's Trio for Violin, Violoncello and Piano.

This Trio was composed in 1928, but not performed until December 3, 1932. The respected French musicians Hortense de Sampigny (violinist) and Jacques Serres (cellist) gave its first and, as far as we know, only performance along with Leguerney’s friend and mentor, Therese Cahen, at the piano. The concert including this work was organized by the SMI at the concert hall of the Ecole Normale de Musique in Paris. A review, in the Journal des débats, speaks of the influence of [Cesar] Franck, of Maurice Ravel and of Spanish dances.

The work is part of Mary Dibbern's ongoing work on Leguerney's unpublished music and will continue with the forthcoming publication of the Fantaisie en Sol mineur for solo piano. Many other works in currently in preparation.

The work is available in our String Music catalog.
