One of Beethoven’s best-known chamber works, the Piano Trio No. 7 in B-flat Major, Op. 97 for piano, violin, and cello was dedicated to Beethoven’s benefactor, student, and friend–Archduke Rudolf of Austria. Not only was this the last piano trio written by Beethoven, due to his progressive loss of hearing, the premier of the “Archduke” Trio was also one of Beethoven’s final concert performances.
