Zwiauer, Székely, Krumpöck / Beethoven, Tchaikovsky

Tchaikovsky dedicated his piano trio to his recently deceased friend, Nicola Rubinstein, and placed this inscription in the score: “In Remembrance of a Great Artist”. Beethoven subsequently dedicated his trio to his prominent student, His Serene Highness Archduke Rudolf of Austria. How fascinating that both major works share a common thread.
