Philip Aagerg, Eugene Friesen, Tracy Silverman

Come hear a fresh approach to chamber music. Three of the most original instrumentalists ever to mutate out of the classical gene pool reunite in Sheridan to breathe new life into the time-honored piano trio tradition. Violinist Tracy Silverman ("the greatest living exponent of the electric violin" - BBC), pianist Philip Aaberg ("the best piano player Iíve ever heard" - Elvin Bishop) and cellist Eugene Friesen (a two-time Grammy Award winner with the Paul Winter Consort) are on a mission to redefine contemporary chamber music.

Performing works from their new all-Bach CD, 3-Part Invention, the trio's live concerts - full of good humor and wonderful surprises - also include original works and reinventions of other classical repertoire. Silverman, Aaberg and Friesen have all created vibrant solo careers by stretching from their classical roots into folk, jazz, rock and world music. Together in The Great Big Piano Trio, their paths converge in homage to the music they first loved.
