The Gould Piano Trio has been compared in the Washington Post to the great Beaux Arts Trio for their “musical fire” and “dedication to the genre” and has remained at the forefront of the international chamber music scene for a quarter of a century.
Launched by winning first prize at the Melbourne Chamber Music Competition, they were European Concert Halls Organisation “Rising Stars”, making a highly successful debut at New York’s Weill Recital Hall, described by Strad Magazine as “Pure Gould”. Their many appearances at London’s Wigmore Hall have included the complete piano trios of Dvořák, Mendelssohn and Schubert, and they return to this iconic venue to present a Beethoven Cycle in the 2022-2023 season.
The trio’s passionate belief in the importance of developing new repertoire has resulted in commissioning works from many contemporary composers, including Sir James MacMillan and Mark Simpson.
Together with clarinettist Robert Plane, the trio are artistic directors of the Corbridge Chamber Music Festival in Northumberland which celebrated its 21st anniversary with a much-acclaimed new commission from Huw Watkins for clarinet and piano trio entitled ‘Four Fables’.
Tours of N. America, the Far East, Europe and New Zealand have been interspersed by adventurous recording projects, with an extensive discography including releases on Naxos, Chandos, Somm, Resonus, NMC and Champs Hill.
