While the string quartet is often regarded as the gold standard in chamber music, the far rarer string trio has been called “the chamber music connoisseur’s delight, in the hands of master composers (and virtuoso performers) offering a peak listening adventure of stunning variety, engrossing dialogue, and transparent beauty.”
Known for their elegance, interpretive depth, and refined artistry, the Aspen Trio’s program includes Mozart’s monumental K. 563 and Harbison’s 2013 trio partially modeled on it, a radiant pillar in his chamber music repertoire, revealing his mastery of both structure and expressive nuance.
