2007-08 NIACC Performing Arts Series

Once Upahn a time…..Born in Seoul, Korea and educated at Juilliard in New York City, the members of the Ahn Trio—sisters Maria, Lucia, and Angella—are redefining the art and architecture of chamber music, breathing new life into the standard piano-trio literature with commissioned works from visionary composers like Kenji Bunch, Maurice Jarre, and Michael Nyman. The trio’s latest CD, Groovebox (EMI Classics), is a showcase of this vibrant and original music. Lucia, Angella, and Maria thrive on dissolving the barriers between art forms. They have fused their work with that of dancers, pop singers, DJ’s, painters, installation artists, photographers, lighting designers, ecologists, and even kite makers. Most recently, they performed live at the Czech Grammys with the Tata Bojs, and received critical acclaim for their collaborative project with the David Parsons Dance Company. Possessing an enviable combination of talent and style, they have been natural subjects for the fashion pages of the likes of Vogue and GQ. In 2003, they were named three of People Magazine’s 50 Most Beautiful People. The Ahn Trio is in high demand, performing and leading master classes and workshops across the United States and around the world. Wherever the Ahns go, they share their innovative spirit and ever-evolving vision of music. Visit their website for more information www.ahntrio.com.
