Label Description:  Emanuel Ax, Leonidas Kavakos, and Yo-Yo Ma announce the fourth   album in their Beethoven for Three series, featuring Symphony No. 1 (Op. 21) and the “Gassenhauer” (Op. 11) and “Ghost” (Op. 70, No. 1) piano trios, three works that span more than a decade of the composer’s output.
