Three musicians with independent careers combine to great effect in Phoenix Piano Trio. Jonathan Stone is a soloist, orchestral leader and the violinist in the Doric String Quartet, one of Britain’s foremost string quartets; Christian Elliott is principal cellist with many UK orchestras, a successful composer and a member of the Zehetmair Quartet; pianist Sholto Kynoch is a sought after recitalist and accompanist as well as being the founder and Artistic Director of the award-winning Oxford Lieder Festival.
This Trio’s programme is a tribute to Haydn’s lesser known genre, the jewel-like piano trios, which he composed for private performance and consequently with the freedom to show his true character.
