Aarhus Musikforening blev stiftet i 1973 for at skabe et forum for kammermusik i Aarhus og er i dag en af landets største kammermusikforeninger.

New Voices 2
New Voices er Trio con Brios nye treårige koncertserie, som Aarhus Musikforening deler med Boulez-Saal Berlin og Diamanten i København. To af koncerterne falder i 25/26 sæsonen, og hvert koncertprogram indeholder en uropførelse, en vigtig 20-århundres klavertrio samt en af de store klaverkvintetter.

Visionen er at lade tre af vores tids markante komponister give deres bud på, hvordan en klavertrio klinger i 2020'erne i samklang med ikke så kendte, men vægtige, værker fra første halvdel af det 20. århundrede.

Hver koncert krones af et mesterværk for klaverkvintet, hvor Trio con Brio forenes med to af tidens unge strygerstjerner!

Program
Rune Glerup: Ny trio
Mieczyslaw Weinberg: Klavertrio op. 24
Dmitrij Sjostakovitj: Klaverkvintet op. 57

Medvirkende
Trio con Brio, Nils Mönkemeyer (bratsch) og Michael Germer (violin)

“Glowing reports hold true. The Trio con Brio Copenhagen clearly occupies a lofty perch in today’s musical scene.” – Washington Post

“From the first note, Trio con Brio exudes class … both explosive and exquisitely intimate – aspects that this performance delivers with compelling panache.” – The Strad

Acknowledged as one of the finest piano trios in the world, the Trio con Brio Copenhagen is about to enter a banner year – 2019 will mark their twentieth anniversary. For a group that views each new year as a call to deepen and enrich their interpretations, it seems a fitting time to take their measure of one of the supreme journeys a piano trio can take; starting in May 2018, Orchid Classics will be releasing their multi-volume traversal of the complete Beethoven Piano Trios.

The Trio was born out of an idea of the coming together of ‘musical pairs’ – of the two Korean-born sisters, Soo-Kyung Hong (cello) and Soo-Jin Hong (violin), with Soo-Kyung and her husband, Danish pianist Jens Elvekjaer. They quickly gained a reputation for their fresh and contemporary approach to the core repertoire. “Works by Beethoven, Schubert and Brahms are transformed in their hands into the alive-and-kicking music of today” said Danish Broadcasting’s Esben Tange. Winning almost all of the major competitions for piano trio – including the ARD (Munich), Vittorio Gui (Florence), Trondheim Competition (Norway), Kalichstein-Laredo-Robinson (USA), Allianz Prize (Germany) and the prestigious “P2 Artists Prize” (Denmark) – they are regularly heard at the world’s leading venues and concert series. Among these, Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, Wigmore Hall, Berlin Pierre Boulez-Saal, Concertgebouw, Elphilharmonie Hamburg, Seoul Arts Centre, Louvre Paris and of course their beloved “home venues”, the Royal Library and the Tivoli Concert Hall, in Copenhagen.
