Formed in 2012, the Leonore Trio brings together three internationally acclaimed artists. The Trio has given concerts throughout the UK, Italy and in New Zealand. Whilst in New Zealand they were adjudicators of the Royal Over-Seas League New Zealand Chamber Music Competition.
Their debut recording for Hyperion of the piano trios of Anton Arensky in 2014 received critical acclaim, with praise for the Trio’s “revelatory playing” (The Observer) and “impressively wide range of timbres” (Limelight Magazine). The Trio’s members are keen exponents of contemporary music: they gave the first performance of Holkham Beach, a piece written for and dedicated to the Trio by Simon Rowland-Jones; and they play the piano trios of distinguished composers including David Matthews, Harrison Birtwistle and Huw Watkins.
The Leonore Trio’s second disc for Hyperion, a recording of Lalo’s piano trios, was released in December 2015.
“There’s high virtuosity all round.”
