The prize-winning members of the Consort Piano Trio met whilst studying at the Royal College of Music, where they each went on to hold Junior Fellowships for two years. They appear regularly in the popular Coffee Concert Series at the Chichester Festivities, and they have also performed for various international music festivals and music societies including Kings Lynn Festival, Chelsea Festival, Music at Champs Hill, and the RHC Concert Series. The members of the trio have flourishing individual careers combining solo, chamber and orchestral work, as well as teaching. They have also given numerous composition workshops and performance masterclasses.
"Alert to the work's psychological complexity as well as its emotional turmoil, the players brought consummate musicianship to bear in a reading of Faure's late masterpiece that ideally combined resurgent passion and autumnal resignation."
