The Budapest Trio was founded in 1980 by the Hungarian Ferenc Kiss, leader of the State Philharmonic of Rhineland-Palatinate, and soon gained international renown. The violinist's partners, violist Tivadar Popa and cellist Peter Wopke, are themselves renowned soloists like Kiss. The three musicians are particularly interested in contemporary music; many works have been dedicated to them. Ferenc Kiss plays an Andrea Guameri from 1671; Popa plays a Pressenda viola from 1831 and Wopke plays a Grancino cello from 1699. On their new release, they perform works by Dieter Acker, Hubert Stuppner, Robert Wittinger, and Peter Sander.
