Trio Ondine was formed in Copenhagen in 1999. After playing a few months together the Trio won its first competition, the Boadwood Piano Trio Competition in Manchester. This success was followed by awards in competitions such as the Chamber Music Competition of the Danish Radio, the Parkhouse Award in London, the Joseph Haydn Competition in Vienna and the ARD Competition in Munich. They were also prize-winners at the Melbourne International Chamber Music Competition, where the three musicians also received the Audience Prize. Trio Ondine has received guidance by the Alban Berg Quartet in Cologne and Ralf Gothoni in Helsinki. Concerts brought Trio Ondine to several European countries and gave them the possibility to make radio recordings in Austria, Germany, Sweden, Denmark, Slovenia, Estonia and England. They have performed several times as soloists in Beethoven’s Triple Concerto. Their performance with the Danish Radio Symphony Orchestra was transmitted as an EBU production to most of Europe, USA, Australia and Hong Kong. Last season brought the Trio to Dortmund, Düsseldorf, Bavaria and to many festivals in Great Britain such as the Nottingham Festival and the Proms. They have also performed at the Berlin Konzerthaus, Gasteig Munich, in Cologne as well as at the Mozarteum Salzburg, the Wigmore Hall London and the Joseph Haydn Hall Vienna. This season the Trio is Artist-in-Residence at the Theatre Duisburg, performing chamber music concerts and concerts with the orchestra of Duisburg. Since September 2003 the Trio have been teaching chamber music at the Royal Danish Music Academy in Copenhagen. Trio Ondine was chosen as a member of BBC Radio 3's New Generation Artists scheme for 2004-2006. Among their ongoing projects is a recording of the complete Holmboe Trios for the DaCapo label and recordings of the complete Beethoven Trios for the Bayerischer Rundfunk in Munich. | |
