Showcasing a diverse repertoire from the Classical and Romantic eras to the present day, the Trio's programming illuminates forgotten masterpieces, whilst inspiring a generation of new works through commissioning and recording projects.
The Marsyas Trio takes its name from Greek mythology, inspired by the bold, spirited passion of the celebrated pipe-playing satyr who dared to compete with Apollo in a musical contest. www.marsyastrio.com
