ArtsFarmington plans to present Trio Con Brio — Copenhagen at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, March 8, at Nordica Auditorium, Merrill Hall, on Main Street in Farmington. The trio will play the music of Haydn, Shostakovich, and Schubert.
The trio consists of two Korean-born sisters, Soo-Kyung Hong (cello) and Soo-Jin Hong (violin), and Soo-Kyung’s husband, Jens Elvekjaer, a Danish pianist. They have gained a reputation for their fresh and contemporary approach to the core repertoire.
They have won almost all the major competitions for piano trio and have played in the world’s leading venues. They have held a central role in Scandinavia’s vibrant contemporary music scene, and many leading Scandinavian composers have had the Trio premiere their works.
All three members of the trio knew right from the start that they would find their musical identities as a piano trio.
