I love this trio. They have, I believe, two albums out to date and both are very much worth your time.

It has been over a year and a pretty hard slog but today I am finished with "The Blue Hour" for violin and piano, composed for Sarah Saviet & Joe Houston which will get its premiere at Donaueschingen Musiktage on October 18th and a UK premiere @hcmfuk.bsky.social in November.

but what a damn fine concert today with Maya Bennardo playing three gorgeous solo violin works by Kristofer Svensson. The two new works are just wonderful. So much enjoying the format of these Yeshin Norbu concerts.
