Trio Fenice, formed in 2021, takes its name by the mythological figure that, like music, resists and is reborn as a superior and absolute value, a winning and permanent light through time.
They attended the Post-gradum Course in Chamber Music at the Pontifical Institute of Sacred Music in Rome in the class of Maestro Claudio Trovajoli, with whom they continue their training, and the Post-gradum Course in Chamber Music with Piano at the Scuola di Musica di Fiesole with Bruno Canino, Alexander Lonquich and the Gaspard Trio.
In October 2022, the Trio was admitted to the Stauffer Center for Strings, where they regularly followed the Artist Diploma course in the class of the Cremona Quartet, attending masterclasses and lessons with internationally renowned personalities.
In 2022 the Trio was selected by Maestro Simone Gramaglia to join the network of ‘Le Dimore del Quartetto’.
The ensemble has distinguished itself in the Italian chamber music scene and has recently performed for the Musica Insieme festival, selected by M° A. Lonquich and organised by the “Giorgio La Pira” International Student Centre in Florence, for the VII and VIII Concertando Festival and for the 2022 Concert Season held at the Sala Accademica of the Pontifical Institute of Sacred Music in Rome and for the “Giovani Interpreti” festival organised by the Luigi Barbara Association in Pescara.
Trio Fenice won 2nd prize at the XXVII ‘G. Rospigliosi’ International Chamber Competition.
