Mark Peskanov, Edward Arron, and Jeewon Park Play Piano Trios of Mendelssohn and Beethoven
About This Event
Violinist Mark Peskanov, cellist Edward Arron and pianist Jeewon Park perform piano trios by Mendelssohn and Beethoven at Bargemusic. Arron's work centers on the piano trio literature, and Peskanov—a Bargemusic regular whose musical life moves between classical repertoire and rock/pop contexts—favours structural clarity and ensemble balance in chamber programs.
About Piano trios(chamber)
At Bargemusic, “Piano trios” traces a chamber tradition built for piano, violin, and cello, from Haydn’s conversational classicism to Mendelssohn’s tighter Romantic drive and Beethoven’s Op. 70 pair, shaped during a period of patronage and later issued in 1809. Violinist Mark Peskanov joins cellist Edward Arron and pianist Jeewon Park, bringing a perspective that also touches rock and pop. No specific NYC premiere history is firmly documented for this program. One hears how three instruments can argue, align, and still leave room for silence.
