General information
Piano Trio op. 5 was composed by Lessel during his stay in Vienna, where he studied in the years 1799-1809 under Józef Haydn’s conduct. He was known to be one of his most esteemed students. Trio, Op. 5 is the second consecutive work written for piano with the obligatory participation of two instruments. The Grand Trio Op. 4 for piano, clarinet and horn was first such attempt.

Structure
Trio for Piano in E major refers to the formal solutions of Haydn and Mozart and is built upon three links: fast - slow - fast.

I. Allegro brillante.

II. Rêve. Adagio.

III. Rondo. Allegro di molto.

Analysis
The first movement is an Allegro brillante in the key of E major and time signature C. It is maintained in the form of a sonata allegro with sterling themes: first of them, with outstanding energy and determination, is built on an ascending scale of E major, given in unison by all the instruments. The second and the lyrical one, is initiated by the violin in the key of the dominant. The stormy and effective development based on the effective and virtuoso part of the piano ends with a charming persiflage of all the instruments and leads to a classical reprise.

The second movement is an Adagio entitled the Rêve, meaning dream. It is written in the ABA form with a 2/4 time signature. Part A performed in the key of A major, idiomatically complements the affect of this movement. Part B in the key of E major introduces a certain liveliness by virtue of the fragmentation of quarter notes on the sextuplets and the emphasized part of the cello.

The third movement is a Rondo in the Allegro di molto tempo, in E major and 2/4 time signature. It is the most virtuoso and vigorous part of the Trio, Op. 5.
