Concert: Trio Zimbalist

Praised for its “versatility as well as virtuosity” and its “vigorous freshness and vitality”, Trio Zimbalist has rapidly established itself as one of the most distinguished chamber ensembles of its generation. Formed by three exceptional alumni of the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia – violinist Josef Špaček, cellist Timotheos Gavriilidis-Petrin, and pianist George Xiaoyuan Fu – the Trio has appeared in major concert halls across Europe and the United States, including the Rudolfinum – Dvořák Hall in Prague, St Martin-in-the-Fields in London, Die Glocke in Bremen, and the Phillips Collection in Washington. Trio Zimbalist will make its Cyprus debut in a rare programme encompassing Brahms’ intense, symphonic-like, yet reflective Piano Trio No.2 in C major, Haydn’s fiery Piano Trio No.39 in G major “Gypsy”, and Weinberg’s heart-rendering Piano Trio in A minor, which was written at the peak of WWII.
