Listen to iconic masterpieces with new ears as NPR & PBS music commentator, conductor, composer, author and pianist Rob Kapilow shows you what you've been missing!

Widely considered to be the greatest piano trio ever written, Beethoven’s “Archduke” Trio represents a defining, transformational moment in the history of Western music. A revolution in musical content as well as well as in how it was commissioned and financed, it replaces the polite, private amateur world of chamber music with virtuosic public music of symphonic scope. Chamber music would never be the same!
