Descending from the great Russian musical tradition, the Hermitage Piano Trio is distinguished by its exuberant musicality, interpretative range and sumptuous sound. A rarity in the chamber music world, three musicians who are noted soloists in their own right make up this elite trio. Following a recent performance, The Washington Post raved that “three of Russia’s most spectacular young soloists turned in a performance of such power and sweeping passion that it left you nearly out of breath.”
