- Lee with her probing phrasing, violinist Rhodes in some charismatic moments
of triumph, and Jokubaviciute with a big personality communicated through
a sound of great refinement and presence.” “Audience response tripled at the conclusion of the final work on
the program, Robert Schumann's infinitely enjoyable Piano Quartet in E-flat
Major, Op. 42. Jokubaviciute played with strength and sensitivity along with
Harumi and Samuel Rhodes, and Lee as the string trio. They were rich and
emotive. This ensemble had the presence and bite to chew on the passionate
outbursts of Schumann, making us wish we could linger with them next summer
in Vermont.” “The Trio […] is relatively new to the chamber music scene,
having formed in 2005. But their sophistication and brilliance belie both
the youth of the musicians and the time they've played together. Individually,
they have become well known at music festivals and competitions worldwide.
Together, as Trio Cavatina, they concentrate largely in the romantic and
classical musical eras. […] Trio's ability to read one another, a
flawless execution with a light, deft touch.” |
