Widely regarded as the premier piano trio of its generation, the Claremont Trio is sought after for its thrillingly virtuosic and richly communicative performances. First winners of the Kalichstein-Laredo-Robinson International Trio Award and the only piano trio ever to win the Young Concert Artists International Auditions, the Claremonts are consistently lauded for their "aesthetic maturity, interpretive depth, and exuberance" (Palm Beach Daily News).
Equally passionate about the standard repertoire and the music of our time, the Claremonts recently celebrated the release of two CDs spanning music from Beethoven to Mason Bates. "American Trios" on Tria Records is the first disc to present both of Leon Kirchner's piano trios and was recorded in honor of his 90th birthday year. The disc also features Paul Schoenfield's "Café Music," Ellen Zwilich's "Trio," and Mason Bates' "String Band" (written for the Claremont Trio in 2002). The group's other recent release, on Ongaku Records, is a collaborative project with clarinetist Jonathan Cohler, including works by Beethoven, Brahms, and Dohnanyi. The recording garnered a glowing review in Fanfare magazine and received a Critic's CHOICE award from BBC magazine, which cited the "splendidly enjoyable" disc's "real intensity through eloquent phrasing and responsive teamwork."
The Trio recently released its newest recording featuring trios of Ravel and Beethoven.
