Georges Bizet: "Carmen"  (Roma, 1967)

This is one of the earliest recordings of chamber music, recorded over 100 years ago, in 1905.  

In this performance of the Minuet and Trio from Beethoven’s Piano Trio in C minor Op. 1 No. 3, both the violinist and cellist were born in the mid 1850s.  In fact, the violinist was born only thirty years after the death of Beethoven.  The sound is remarkable clear for its age.

Come nube che fugge dal vento 
abbandono sdegnato quel volto. 
Il mio foco nel seno già spento, 
di quest'alma già il laccio è disciolto.
