Discovering the Classical String Trio.VivaldiProject

The Vivaldi Project presents the rarely explored genre of the classical string trio. While modern audiences are familiar with Mozart's grand Divertimento in E-flat and the op. 9 trios by Beethoven, The Vivaldi Project introduces mostly unknown, but important compositions by JC Bach, Haydn, Sammartini, Campioni, and many others.

The Vivaldi Project, performing on period instruments, has been hailed as “simply breathtaking!” Widely acclaimed for innovative programming which combines scholarship and performance, Co-directors Elizabeth Field and Stephanie Vial, are joined by Allison Edberg-Nyquist to form The Vivaldi Project Classical String Trio.
