SUMMARY:Exhibition Opening: Arnold Schönberg – 150 Years & Concert by Trio Callas
DESCRIPTION:Image: Amélie Meißner\n \nSEPTEMBER 19 | 6.30 PM \nPLEASE RSVP HERE ( https://www.eventbrite.com/e/exhibition-opening-arnold-schonberg-150-years-concert-by-trio-callas-tickets-951029002347 )\n \nJoin us for the opening of our special exhibition Arnold Schönberg – 150 Years and a concert by the Austria-based ensemble Trio Callas. Ulrike Anton, Director of the Arnold Schönberg Center Vienna ( https://www.schoenberg.at/index.php/en/ ), will address the audience with opening remarks.\nThe internationally award-winning Trio Callas with members from Portugal, Japan-Brazil and France, kicks off its North and South American tour in the US with a program celebrating the 150th anniversaries of two visionary composers who, though they never crossed paths during their lifetimes, reshaped the landscape of 20th-century music: the Austrian Arnold Schoenberg and the American Charles Ives. Schönberg admired Ives’ compositions, and described him as a “great man.”\n \nMusical Programme\nCharles Ives (1874-1954)\nPiano Trio\nI. Moderato\nII. TSIAJ (This scherzo is a joke). Presto\nIII. Moderato con moto\nArnold Schönberg (1874-1951)\nVerklärte Nacht, Op. 4\n(authorized editing by E. Steuermann)\n \nAbout Trio Callas\nFounded in 2021 by three friends who met in Mozart’s Salzburg, the Trio Callas ( https://triocallas.com/ ) was awarded at the FNAPEC Competition in Paris and the Bacewicz Competition in Łódź within a year of its formation. Formed by members from Portugal, Japan-Brazil, and France, the group is known for the uniqueness of its expression, born from the meeting of diverse cultural backgrounds.\nThe trio is regularly invited to perform its original programs throughout Europe and on tours to other continents. After its first overseas appearance in Japan in 2023, the ensemble embarks on a series of performances in the Americas in 2024.\nCurrently under the guidance of Cibrán Sierra Vázquez (Cuarteto Quiroga) at the Mozarteum University Salzburg, the group has worked with the Cuarteto Casals, Trio di Parma, Vienna Piano Trio, Benjamin Schmid, Connie Shih, and Thomas Riebl. They have also been mentored by Mischa Maisky, thanks to the sponsorship of the Stauffer Foundation.\nIn addition to performing the traditional repertoire, the trio challenges the boundaries of genre by collaborating with artists from outside classical music that they enjoy listening to. In 2023, the ensemble began a collaboration with Brazilian jazz multi-instrumentalist André Mehmari, commissioning and premiering his composition in Kitzbühel, Austria.\n \n Miguel Rocha ( https://triocallas.com/about/ ) (Portugal, 2001) – violin\nMiguel is a prizewinner of international competitions such as the Concorso Ruggiero Ricci, Concurso Nacional Vasco Barbosa, Convimus International Violin Competition, Prémio Ilda Moura, Guimarães International Violin Competition and Cidade do Fundão International Competition.\nHe served as concertmaster for the orchestras JOF- Jovem Orquestra de Famalicão, Orquestra Sinfónica APROARTE and Orquestra Sinfónica ARTAVE, and worked with conductors such as Peter Askim, Emílio de César, David Brichez-Lalli, Benoît Fromanger, Radu Postavaru, Maxim Tortelier, José Eduardo Gomes.
