Around 1800 Beethoven seems to have completely distanced himself from chamber music for wind. In letters to his publisher we read that he did not have any particular regard for his Septet op. 20 and the Sextet op. 71; furthermore, he did not write any new works for wind ensembles. By contrast, he ennobled his Trio op. 87 – originally for two oboes and cor anglais – by making an additional version for two violins and viola. This charming work is published following the Urtext in the Beethoven Complete Edition and is a welcome addition to the repertoire for these instruments for which a great deal has not otherwise been composed.

Reviews
Nel catalogo delle opere di Beethoven compaiono diversi lavori che, concepiti per un organico ben determinato, vennero poi dal compositore o da altri (col su beneplacito) trascritti per altre formazioni. Tralasciando altri casi anche importanti, veniamo al Trio in Do Maggiore op. 87 per due violoni e viola. Formazione insolita, non c’è che dire, che è la versione pubblicata nel 1806, da Artaria, di un Trio per due oboi e corno inglese in Do Maggiore. Precedentemente composto, presumibilimente nel 1797.

Die Ausgabe ist gut gemacht, an Umblättermöglichkeiten in den Stimmen wurde gedacht und die Ausgabe verbindet erstmals beide Beethovenwerke für 2 Oboen und Englischhorn in einem Band.
