Piano trio concert by Trio Bohémo with works by Beethoven, Martinů, Reicha and Dvořák, part of the Classical Music Alive 2026/27 season.
Trio Bohémo play the Town Hall - Concert Hall on Thursday 12 November, as part of the Classical Music Alive 2026/27 season. The trio is Matouš Pěruška on violin, Kristina Vocetková on cello and Jan Vojtek on piano.
The programme is built around four piano trios. There's Beethoven's No 3 in C Minor, Op 1, Martinů's No 2 in D Minor, H327, Reicha's No 6 in A Major, Op 101 and Dvořák's No 4 in E Minor, Op 90 'Dumky'. It's a fairly broad spread: the early Beethoven, the 20th-century Czech voice of Martinů, the French classicism of Reicha and the folk-inflected Dvořák. The Dvořák is the one most people will recognise — Dumky refers to the slow, melancholic dance songs of the Czech countryside.
It's a young ensemble that's moved quickly. In five years they've picked up top prizes at the International Joseph Haydn Competition in Vienna, the International Parkhouse Award in London, the International Johannes Brahms Competition in Austria, the Melbourne International Chamber Music Competition in Australia and the International Joseph Joachim Competition in Germany. They were named Ensemble of the Year 2021 by the Italian society 'Le Dimore del Quartetto' and received an award from the Czech Chamber Music Society.
