What:	NEXT › ‹ PREVIOUS THE BUFFALO CHAMBER MUSIC SOCIETY PRESENTS AWARD-WINNING YOUNG TRIO TRIO CON BRIO COPENHAGEN On Monday, November 3 at 8 pm, Trio con Brio Copenhagen performs on the Buffalo Chamber Music Society's 85th season in Kleinhans Music Hall's Mary Seaton Room. A "Chat with the Artists" hosted by WNED-FM personality Peter Hall precedes the concert at 7:15 pm. Trio con Brio Copenhagen - the Korean sisters Soo-Jin Hong and Soo-Kyung Hong and the Danish pianist Jens Elvekjaer - was the recipient of the Kalichstein-Laredo-Robinson International Trio Award in 2005.This biennial award, one of the most coveted in the world of chamber music, honours in perpetuity the Kalichstein-Laredo-Robinson Trio by encouraging and enhancing the career of an extraordinarily accomplished "rising" piano trio. Founded in Vienna in 1999, the trio first drew attention with a sensational performance that took the highest prize at Germany's prestigious ARD-Munich Competition in 2002. Since then, they won first prize in several more competitions: Italy's Premio Vittorio Gui (Florence), Norway's Trondheim Chamber Music Competition, and the Danish Radio Competition.They also won the "Allianz Prize" for Best Ensemble in Germany's Festspiele Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, and second prize in the Vienna Haydn Competition and the Premio Trio di Trieste (Italy, 2002). Critics have praised the trio for their "sparkling joie de vivre" and "magic dialogue;" a review of their performance at the Salzburg Mozarteum said, "they cast a spell over their audience...so alive, so musical...ravishing." Trio con Brio Copenhagen belongs unquestionably to the upper echelons of young chamber ensembles performing today. Tickets are $20 for general admission and $10 for students.
