Chamber music is one of the pillars of a musician's training and at the Escuela Superior de Música Reina Sofía all the students form part of first-class chamber ensembles. In this concert, part of the Jóvenes Talentos Fundación Banco Sabadell Cycle, the Grupo Arriaga de Banco de España and the Grupo Da Vinci de Google perform works for strings and piano by Johannes Brahms and Claude Debussy.

Brahms' Piano Quartet No. 3. in C minor, Op. 60 is sometimes called his Werther Quartet after Goethe's novel. Brahms composed this quartet in a period of his life heavily influenced by the Sturm und Drang movement, and in the stormy nature of the music of this work many have wanted to see an expression of his unrequited love for Clara Schumann.

The second work in the concert also has a markedly Romantic character, which may be surprising for a work by Debussy, who has accustomed us to the mists of impressionism. In this First Piano Trio in G major, a work of his youth and his first major musical project, Debussy shows signs of his genius with an eye to his musical past but taking firm steps towards a personal style.
