I love this trio, too. In my opinion, it should be performed only when all
three singers have good enough vocal technique to make every note sound
beautiful. This is not always the case with undergraduate singers, or even some
professional singers I've heard in the opera house. So if the singers you're
thinking of can really sing this music, and you should be realistic in this
assessment, I think it would be a terrific piece to include in your recital.
