DVORAK PIANO TRIOS Op.65 and Op.90 “Dumky” Triple Forte Jasper Wood, violin | Yegor Dyachkov, cello | David Jalbert, piano ACD2 2691 • This recording features Triple Forte in two carefully paired works by Dvorák: the Piano Trio No. 3, Op.65, and the Piano Trio No. 4, Op. 90, “Dumky”.   They occupy significant places in the Czech master's opus, each illustrating a distinct aspect of this great melodist’s vision and artistic inspiration. • Triple Forte brings together three of Canada's most prominent soloists.   Violinist Jasper Wood, cellist Yegor Dyachkov and pianist David Jalbert have joined forces to create a sought-after piano trio that has captured critics' and audiences' attention with their passion, intelligence and sensitivity, not to mention the sheer joy that they bring to the stage: “This was a splendid concert.   I’d miss sunshine, football or Santa for music like this any day.” (The Globe and Mail). • Triple Forte's first recording, released on ATMA in 2012, is dedicated to early 20th century masterpieces by Ravel, Shostakovitch and Ives and drew rave reviews: “Triple Forte, in musical terms, means as loud as possible, but this all-Canadian piano trio excels in fine nuance, not noise … Changing rhythmic and expressive gears with deceptive ease, Triple Forte entrances with their single-minded grace, finding sensible balance between musical muscle and subtle expression throughout.” (Toronto Star) Anton Dvorak (1841-1904) Trio pour piano et cordes N° 3 en fa Mineur Op.65 B.130 Piano Trio No. 3 in F minor, Op. 65, B 130 1.   I.
