„… Anyone who has been privileged to follow the concerts of the Abegg Trio will hardly be surprised by this commitment to New Music. At best, the listener will be surprised by the self-evidence, even sovereignty, by which Ulrich Beetz (violin), Birgit Erichson (violoncello) and Gerrit Zitterbart (piano) concentrate on the respective compositions. The CD programme includes piano trio compositions from four decades, beginning with Hans Werner Henze's early Chamber Sonata from 1948, Dietrich Acker's "Stigmas", Wilhelm Killmayer's "Brahms Portrait" from 1976, Wolfgang Rihm's "Fremde Szene II" and ending with the Dietrich Erdmann Trio from 1990.“
