Halír Trio is an ensemble based on the outstanding Spanish violinist Eduardo García Salas. For years, the main goal of the ensemble has been to revive the character of the outstanding Czech violinist Karel Halír (1859 - 1909), who was an important personality in the musical life of the late nineteenth century. Halír himself played regularly in a piano trio, so it is only fitting that the ensemble aiming to revive his legacy plays in such a formation. For this release, the ensemble has recorded the piano trio from Enrique Granados (Piano Trio in C Major, Op. 50) and Antonín Dvorák´s Piano Trio in F minor Op 65. The Halír Trio is cellist Jana Podolska, pianist Vaclav Macha, and violinist Eduardo Garcia Salas.
