These appear to be the only chamber works this pianist and teacher wrote (there are lots of piano pieces, songs and a comic opera) and their dates are uncertain. The sonata is simple and elegant with more than a touch of the salon in its slow movement but the 33-minute trio is more impressive, with a three-note motive in the first movement you'll swear you've known all your life, a light and Mendelssohnian scherzo, a slow movement with much more depth and an allegro con fuoco finale as advertised. Joanna Lawrynowicz (piano), Andrzej Gebski (violin), Andrzej Wróbel (cello).

Known primarily as a folklorist and ethnographer, Kolberg also wrote over 100 piano pieces. He was first to identify the kujawiak as a separate dance from the mazurka, so it’s nice to have six of them here. The polonaises are rather like early Chopin whle the 27-minute sonata is what will really make you prick up your ears: whole segments of it seem to have been modeled on Beethoven’s Pathétique while Slavic elements color its minuet and salon-style style brillant takes over the Rondo militaire finale.
