The Eroica Trio's name (Italian for "heroic") is taken from Beethoven's Third Symphony and reflects its energy. "There is an edge of the seat intensity to every note they produce." (The New York Times) Winners of the 1991 Naumberg award (violinist Adela Peña won a Coleman award in 1986), the Trio's members have a remarkable history. Adela and pianist Erika Nickrenz began performing together at age nine, Erika and cellist Sara Sant'Ambrogio studied together with Sara's grandmother, and the Trio came together at The Juilliard School. Five of the Trio's CDs have been produced by Erika's mother, three-time Grammy Award-winner Joanna Nickrenz.

Program:

  • Bach: Chaconne from Partita No. 2 for Solo Violin in D minor, BWV 1004 (arr. Anne Dudley)
  • Mark O'Connor: Trio No. 1 for Piano, Violin and Cello ("Poets and Prophets")
