Founded in 2008 in Geneva, Switzerland, the Streeton Trio is Australia’s most internationally successful piano trio. Named after Sir Arthur Streeton, the ensemble is now based in Sydney and features violinist Emma Jardine, cellist Rachel Siu, and pianist Bernadette Harvey.

Winners of the 2011 Musica Viva Chamber Music Competition, the trio has been laureates of prestigious international competitions and received support from the Australia Council for the Arts, Arts Victoria, and the Ian Potter Cultural Trust. They have performed at Wigmore Hall (London), Het Loo Royal Palace (Holland), and Shanghai Oriental Arts Centre (China), among other esteemed venues.

With four acclaimed CDs, their recordings are frequently featured on ABC Classic and Classic FM, praised for their “crisp, gutsy” interpretations (The Age). The Streeton Trio continues to captivate audiences across Australia and internationally, cementing its place as one of the country’s premier chamber ensembles.

Founder of the Streeton Trio, Emma Jardine studied in Switzerland and Germany, performing internationally as a chamber musician and soloist. A former violinist of the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, she has toured extensively and won numerous awards.

An international prize-winning cellist, Minah Chloe has appeared as a soloist with several orchestras, including the Sydney Symphony, Christchurch Symphony, Indiana University Philharmonic and the Nizhny-Novgorod Philharmonic. She has won numerous awards, including the inaugural János Starker Scholarship, the "Most Promising Performer" award at the 4th Adam International Cello Competition, and the Australian Postgraduate Award.

A renowned concert pianist and educator, Ming Ho has performed with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra, the Sydney Youth Orchestra, the Western Australian Youth Orchestra, and the Willoughby Symphony. An active chamber musician, she has performed in many festivals including the Prussia Cove International Musicians Seminar, and the Duo Sonata Program at the Lausanne Academie de Musique in Switzerland.
