Your daily Beethoven for friday June 14, 2024.

Beethoven's Opus 79 no.1 is called the "Ghost Trio" for the eerie quality of the second movement, which Beethoven marked "Largo Assai" - as slow and intense as possible.

The nickname doesn't do justice to the great power and beauty of this work, here played by the Beaux Arts Trio. https://youtu.be/akziMCkuf28
