My favorite piano trio is Bill Evans' in the early sixties with Paul Motian and Scott LaFaro!  ;)

Others worth mentioning:

- Ravel trio in A minor.

- Dvorak - op. 90

Also, it's not a proper piano trio, but the Brahm horn trio (piano, violin and French horn) is my favorite chamber music piece.

Tchaikovsky, Ravel, Archduke, Schubert Bb, and a third early Schubert Bb piano trio which is quite obscure and is called a sonata. And Schoenfield!
