Winner of the Trondheim International Chamber Music Competition (2019) and BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artists (2021–2023), Mithras Trio has gained recognition as one of the most engaging young piano trios. Its debut recording on Linn is a stimulating programme of works by Bridge, Grime, Eröd and Ginastera. Titled Eros , it invites several associations with the Greek god of love: the allure of the female form is heard in Helen Grime’s sparkling Three Whistler Miniatures , as is the beautiful maiden in Alberto Ginastera’s Danza de la moza donosa . Frank Bridge’s Phantasie Trio drips with hyperromantic indulgence, while Iván Eröd’s Piano Trio No. 1, a nod to the title, is a work that marries Haydn and post-Bartók Hungarian folk influence, with some French Impressionist harmonies and no small element of jazz!
