Trio Con Brio Copenhagen
Schubert, Weinberg, Nørgård
Musical Performance Trio 0Audio Livestream: Trio Con Brio Copenhagen
Founded in 1999, Trio con Brio Copenhagen has been a prominent force in the Scandinavian contemporary-music scene for many years. For their third appearance at the Pierre Boulez Saal, the three musicians have once again chosen a work by one of today’s foremost Danish composers to open the concert. The title of Per Nørgårds Spell refers to “spelling” musical motives, but also to the idea of “enchantment.” Trios by Mieczysław Weinberg and Franz Schubert complete the program.
The audio livestream will be open to the general public. Following the concert, the on-demand audio will be available to members of Pierre Boulez Saal Online only. Learn more about our new online membership!
The audio recording will be released shortly after the concert.
