BOCCHERINI STRING TRIO
The BOCCHERINI STRING TRIO was founded in Berlin and, since its earliest years, has received artistic guidance from Günter Pichler and Natalia Prischepenko. In 2015, the ensemble was appointed Official Ensemble of the European Chamber Music Academy (ECMA), studying with Hatto Beyerle and Johannes Meissl, and later in Basel with Rainer Schmidt. Despite its relatively short history, the trio has already garnered significant critical acclaim through performances in Europe and Australia. Only a few months after joining ECMA, the ensemble was invited to perform twice at London’s Wigmore Hall, as well as at the Berlin Konzerthaus, the Mantua Festival and in China. Individually, the members of the Boccherini String Trio pursue active careers as soloists, chamber musicians and principal players in leading European orchestras. They have collaborated with artists such as Steven Isserlis, Christian Tetzlaff, the Hagen Quartet, Mitsuko Uchida, Frank Peter Zimmermann, Nobuko Imai, Salvatore Accardo, Bruno Giuranna and Alban Gerhardt. A central artistic mission of the Boccherini String Trio is the rediscovery and promotion of the approximately 500 works written for this ensemble—a true treasure trove, much of which remains unjustly neglected, despite the presence of genuine masterpieces.
