Description: The subject here is the development of the string trio into the orchestral trio which, with the addition of the minuet, would become the Classical symphony. In fact, the last three of Guénin's 1768 trios are instructed to be played by a "full" orchestra (four violins, cello, flute, oboe, bassoon and harpsichord here) while Gossec's remain in the original trio scoring (two violins, cello and harpsichord). Both these composers are important developers of the symphony and this disc is an important document therof for symphony collectors. Ensemble Hemiolia.
