In 2013 the Osiris Trio celebrate their 25th anniversary. Since 1988 the trio has toured five continents with enormous success, number of awards and several recordings.
 
With their new recording the Osiris Trio presents Schönberg’s “Verklärte Nacht” and a piano trio from the Austrian composer Karl Weigl. The pupil of Alexander Zemlinsky was well known and respected as a teacher and musical expert. His compositions remained in the romantic style of the 19th century but convince with brilliance and technical refinement.
