WXXI Classical's annual celebration of local performing groups. While the novel coronavirus has resulted in the cancellation of concerts and seasons, we brought some of the area's best live musical moments to you. This focus on local music has continued through the show Performance Upstate and the continued inclusion of live, local performances as part WXXI's daily programming.

Fanny Mendelssohn: Piano Trio in d, op. 11, January 11, 2016

David Brickman, violin
Stefan Reuss, cello
Diane Walsh, piano

This performance was recorded at the May, 17, 2015 “Fanny in May” concert by First Muse. Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel was sister to the better-known Felix Mendelssohn, and is considered by many to be equal in talent, though often overlooked. Her piano trio is one of her greatest works.
