The Huntington Piano Trio was founded in Boston in 1995 by pianist, Miles Goldberg and violinist, Blanka Bednarz to increase audience awareness and appreciation for the vast specrum of music written for the unique combination of piano, violin and cello. This recording is "distinguished by some fine playing and for its inclusion of the rarely heard Korngold Trio plus the American premier performance of an engaging Trio composed in 1987 by Romauld Twardowski, who supplied the ensemble with the music and with supplemental recommendations concerning its performance" (FanFare Magazine).
