Three soloists from the Berlin State Opera Orchestra, under the leadership of Daniel Barenboim, founded an exceptional piano trio, inspired to develop their own performances through their constant collaboration with artists such as Barenboim, Yefim Bronfman and Yo Yo Ma.
As Robert Schumann put it, “Clarinet, viola and piano is the most romantic combination of instruments.” Trio Apollon has won over the hearts of their audiences with performances at New York's Carnegie Hall, the Berlin Philharmonie, Tokyo's Suntory Hall and venues in London and Paris. The time has come for them to conquer the public of Macao with pieces from the German Romantic repertoire.
“...This complement has a great future...”
