The trios can be seen as a part of the preparation for the upcoming string quartets, which became the leading genre among his chamber music. The musicologist Gerald Abraham has remarked that in terms of their style and aesthetic value the string trios of Op. 9 rank with Beethoven's first string quartets which ousted the trios from the concert ...

Allegro con brio , 3 4; Andante cantabile con Variazioni (E-flat major), 2 4; Minuetto. Quasi allegro (C minor, with a trio in C major), 3 4; Finale. Prestissimo (C minor, concluding in C major), 2 2; Unlike the other piano trios in this opus, the third trio does not have a scherzo as its third movement but a minuet instead.
The first movement follows the sonata allegro format of the classical period, and borrows thematically from Beethoven's Piano Quartet No. 3 in C major, [5] WoO 36, from a decade earlier.
The opening of the movement begins in a way that seemingly contradicts the allegro con spirito marking. Violin II, viola, and cello sustain a tonic chord while the first violin plays the melody (the "sunrise" motif) on top. In measure 7, the same instruments sustain a dominant seventh chord while the first violin again plays a rising solo on top.
