The Solstice Trio is looking forward to sharing a program that brings listeners into the heart of the Romantic era, celebrating the profound musical and personal connection between Clara Schumann and Johannes Brahms. This concert features two masterpieces of the piano trio repertoire: Clara Schumann’s Piano Trio in G minor, Op. 17, and Johannes Brahms’s Piano Trio No. 1 in B Major, Op. 8.
Through both performance and brief discussion, the Solstice Trio will illuminate the intricate ties of influence, respect, and affection that link Schumann and Brahms, exploring how their personal stories are woven into the fabric of these expressive and brilliant chamber works.

This yearly event has defined their mission to break down barriers between audience and performer, fostering communal, shared experiences of music.
