Klengel’s Children’s Trio Op. 35/2, an "only child" in our catalogue just in 1993, has cheerfully welcomed three new siblings into the family. Two pieces from Opus 35 and two from Opus 39 now help budding string players and pianists discover the pleasure of ensemble playing with some rewarding music.

The famous Leipzig cello virtuoso Julius Klengel filled a true market gap a hundred years ago with his Children’s Trios Op. 35 and 39: chamber music so easy that it could be played by children. On popular demand, we began to reprint selected editions in 1993. Opus 35 No. 1 thus stood at the beginning of this rejuvenated series of children’s trios.
