The
Mendelssohn Trio's performance emphasized, in turn, portentousness,
sophistication and playfulness.
Joan Reinthaler, Washington Post, March 23, 2009
These performances
are splendid in everyway, and the recording is equally fine.
I can’t imagine a better introduction to this long-neglected music.

Trio is one of the more recent stars adding radiance to today's constellation

Currently
Ensemble-in-Residence for Washington
DC's Embassy
Series, Messiah
College as well as Chamber
Music in Grantham, PA, the Mendelssohn Piano Trio
is one of the most exciting ensembles on the national and
international music scene. The ensemble has performed and
gave master classes in a variety of venues nationwide and
abroad, including universities, colleges, art academies, and
music festivals, as well as an international radio feature
of Voice of America. The performance highlights of the Trio's
upcoming 10th season are: National Concert Hall in Taipei
Taiwan, National Gallery of the Arts, Smithsonian American
Art Museum, Embassy Concert Series, Black Rock Center of the
Arts, Austin Chamber Music Festival, and many others. Their
fourth & fifth CDs have been released under the Centaur label
with music of J. Suk, B. Smetana, and F. Mendelssohn. The
Washington Post has described the group's Brahms cycle of
piano trios and piano quartets presented by the Embassy Series
as "unfathomably beautiful", "transcendent" and "electrifying".
In 2002 the group presented a cycle of the complete Beethoven
piano trios in Portugal and Washington DC to critical acclaim.
The American Record Guide and Fanfare magazines have praised
the trio's recordings released on Centaur Records and numerous
classical music stations in the United States have broadcast
them. The trio's recent performance at the National Gallery
of Arts was broadcasted on NPR's "Performance Today" program.
