Oliver Messiaen, Quartet for the End of Time

French composer Messiaen wrote this Quartet while a prisoner of war in 1941 under German captivity. It was first performed in the camp by his fellow prisoners as a short trio. He later determined to write it for the same trio with himself at the piano, and the piece was extended. It is now among the most important of Messiaen’s works.

Johannes Brahms, Trio for Clarinet, Cello and Piano in A minor, Op. 114, and other selections

Composed in the summer of 1891 and considered by music scholars an important part of the rebirth of Brahms as a composer after he had declared that he had done his final work and was retiring from composing. One music scholar wrote that hearing this piece makes it seem as if the instruments were in love with each other.
