Following the success of writing the 1st Piano Sonata I was encouraged by Andrew Toovey to write a Piano Trio for Violin, Cello and Piano for a potential memorial concert for a musician friend of his that had passed away.

​

Written in 3 movements this was again a piece that came together remarkably quickly, within a week for the first draft which, with minor revisions, is essentially the finished article. Keen to avoid the usual piano dominated trio format the piano often takes a back seat into a more accompanying role, especially in the 2nd movement.
