Lendvai String Trio

Since their Wigmore Hall debut in 2006, the Lendvai String Trio has performed at major venues throughout Europe, including several re-invitations to Wigmore Hall, recitals at King’s Place, the Barbican and Purcell Room, the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam and Musikaliska in Stockholm. Their violinist, Nadia Wijzenbeek leads the Dutch Radio Philharmonic Orchestra and is a BBC New Generation Artist. Violist Ylvali Zilliacus has been a member of the English Concert and has worked as guest principal with the Philharmonia and Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra. After winning the string section of BBC Young Musician of the Year, cellist Marie Macleod has forged a career as a soloist, chamber and orchestral musician. She is now the principal cellist of the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra. The Trio’s recording of the complete Beethoven String Trios was the BBC Music Magazine’s Chamber Choice in 2013. They are bringing to Stamford two of the most beautiful trios in the repertoire, Beethoven’s Op 3 and Schubert’s D 581. These are matched with Röntgen’s Trio No 13. The compositions of Julius Röntgen (1855 – 1932) have been overlooked for decades. They are written in the romantic style of Schumann, Mendelssohn and Brahms, and are only now being rediscovered.
