Summary/Abstract: The genre of the string trio, extremely popular in the second half of the eighteenth century, is now largely forgotten and overshadowed by the string quartet. One of the composers who created the foundations of this genre was the Austrian Pauline monk Fr. Amandus Ivanschiz (1727–1758). However, his role in this field was not noted by researchers due to a lack of knowledge about his life, resulting in a wrong (much later) dating of his works. The aim of this article is to discuss Ivanschiz’s contribution to the development of the classical string trio and to present six sources from the Benedictine monastery in Melk (Austria) which contain, among others, two previously unknown trios by Fr. Amandus.
