The Horszowski Trio Performs the Three Piano Trios of Brahms

Hailed by The New Yorker as “destined for great things,” when the members of the Horszowski Trio (Hor-SHOV-ski) – Jesse Mills, Raman Ramakrishnan, and Rieko Aizawa – played together for the first time, they immediately felt the spark of a unique connection. Two-time Grammy-nominated violinist Jesse Mills first performed with Raman Ramakrishnan, founding cellist of the prize-winning Daedalus Quartet, when they were children. In New York City, they met pianist Rieko Aizawa, who had made her U.S. debuts at the Kennedy Center and Carnegie Hall. Ms. Aizawa was the last pupil of the legendary pianist, Mieczyslaw Horszowski, from whom the Trio takes inspiration for his musicianship, integrity, and humanity. Their debut recording, in memory of Mr. Horszowski, was released by Bridge Records in 2014.  The performance is followed by a wine and cheese artist reception.
