MOZART Piano Trio in B-flat "Divertimento" (1776),
KV 254. Leos JANACEK String Quartet No.1,

Coxe. Robert SCHUMANN Trio No.3 in G minor,
Op. 110 (1851).
The highly acclaimed Weilerstein Trio, the trio-in-residence
at the New England Conservatory of Music,
has established itself as one of the most dynamic
and electric piano trios on the concert stage today.
In the words of the
Boston Globe,
"passion is the hallmark
of the Weilersteins' playing." Since their first public
concert at the Round Top Festival Institute when cellist
Alisa was six years old, the Trio has gained a wide
following among diverse audiences. Hailed for its "luminous
vibrancy" (Washington Post),
the Trio has performed at
Lincoln Center in New York City and at prominent venues
in Washington, D.C., Cleveland, St. Louis, St. Paul, San
Francisco, Los Angeles, and Boston. The Trio made their
London debut in 2004 at the Royal Academy of Music.
Outside of their invigorating explorations of the
trio repertoire, the members maintain thriving careers
as soloists, duo artists, and teachers - Donald
and Vivian as faculty members at the New England
Conservatory and the Juilliard School, Alisa as one
of the most sought-after soloists of her generation.
