[edit] Giardini trios and questionable predominance of the trio

As noted on the page for Mozart's string trio, also, the string trio that would have predominated before Mozart's one complete effort in the genre was the 2-violin (and viola or bass) trio that Boccherini wrote so many of, not the violin-viola-cello trio that Wenzel Pichl wrote perhaps the first substantial example of and which only later became the norm. Pleyel is a composer of a later generation, a pupil of Haydn, wrote his many quartets and trios (and piano trios and duos and...) in the last quarter of the century... poor example.
