Peabody Trio performs Beethoven, Schumann

Published January 16, 2009 5:00am ET



The Peabody Trio — Violaine Melancon on violin, Natasha Brofsky on violoncello and Seth Knopp on piano — will perform Beethoven’s “Archduke” Trio on Wednesday.

Beethoven’s “Piano Trio No. 7 in B-flat major, Op. 97” is known as the “Archduke” Trio because it was dedicated to Archduke Rudolph of Austria, one of Beethoven’s composition students. Completed in 1811, it was first performed publicly in 1814.
