Bach: Two Part Inventions
Beethoven: Piano Trio No. 5, "Ghost"
Brahms: Piano Quartet No.2

Bach’s charming inventions were written as exercises for the musical education of his students. Beethoven’s piano trio, written while spending a penniless summer in Vienna, features themes found in his Second Symphony. While Brahms’ seemingly effortless quartet is testament to his love of Schubert, it also includes shameless bursts of popular music of the time.
