In past seasons

the founding ensemble, Trio Solisti, described by the critics as "three of the most sought after artists of their generation," performed programs including masterworks of Beethoven, Mendelssohn Schubert, Ravel and Shostakovich. Branching out from the classical tradition, Musicfest has presented Le Grand Tango, Jazzy Classics, Americans in Paris, and From Russia With Love. Maria Bachmann, artistic director of Musicfest and the trio's violinist, promises that "what you will hear at our concerts are the pieces we most enjoy playing".

The Founding Ensemble

Trio Solisti is violinist Maria Bachmann, pianist Jon Klibonoff and cellist Alexis Pia Gerlach. As a trio they tour all over the country and individually they have performed with major orchestras and festivals the world over.
