About

Attracted by the idea of walking a hitherto unexplored musical path, pianists Giorgia Tomassi, Carlo Maria Griguoli and Alessandro Stella began their trio adventure in June 2010 when they took part in the Lugano Festival’s prestigious Martha Argerich Project, performing a transcription of Stravinsky’s Firebird Suite by Carlo Maria Griguoli.

This unusual debut was so successful that the three players have since gone on to form a lasting artistic relationship. They have won both public and critical acclaim for their subsequent appearances at Lugano, as well as at other leading venues in Italy and around the world.

In the trio’s performances captured on this CD, the balanced and varied way in which the sounds of the three pianos are treated enables the individual instruments to assert themselves at times, but also to blend together as one in an intense process of “musical osmosis”.

First recording of Boccadoro's Vaalbara.
