About The Event
MUSIC
Haydn's 45 piano trios are delightful and feature brilliant piano writing. • Nicky Sohn splendidly captures the vivid world of G.K. Chesterton's “The Secret Garden,” a world premiere commissioned by The Lee Trio! • Turina's cyclic fantasy Circulo portrays the round of a day in Spain—from morning through midday to the unwinding at evening. • Brahms' romantic voice surges, creating a masterful new model for the piano trio.
ARTISTS
Since its critically acclaimed Wigmore Hall debut in 2002, The Lee Trio's “gripping immediacy and freshness” and “rich palette of colours” (The Strad) continue to move audiences and critics around the globe. This prize‑winning ensemble of sisters has performed to acclaim in China, the United States, and Europe, and is passionate about working with living composers, including Korean‑American Nicky Sohn. “The [Lee] Trio really inhabited every phrase, speaking with conviction and flair.” (The Strad).
