The Paris-based ensemble is quickly becoming an international sensation by offering definitive performances with effervescent style and enthusiasm, bringing the clarinet-violin-piano instrumentation to the foreground of the chamber music. Originally formed in New York in 2006, the Trio has since appeared at such venues as Lincoln Center in New York, Oriental Performing Arts Center in Shanghai, the Corum in Montpellier, the Acropolis in Nice, Izumi Hall in Osaka, and Radio France in Paris, among many others. Notably, the trio collaborates with Yovan Markovich, cellist of the famed Ysaÿe Quartet in extended programs. Their February 12th program at the Douglas Beach House in Half Moon Bay includes music by George Gershwin, Paul Schoenfield, Stravinsky and Bartok, as well as composer Andrew List who is touring with the trio and will be present at the performance.
