Biography Deutsches Streichtrio
Deutsches Streich Trio
"No other string trio has performed so many new compositions for the first time, produced so many CDs, and helped this rare form gain such prestige as has the DEUTSCHES STREICH TRIO" – thus the music press in its reviews. The headlines – such as "A First-Rate Evening", "Interpretive High Point", "On the Mount Olympus of Chamber Music", – say it all.
In the more than 40 years since its founding the German string trio has received many awards – among others the "German Record Critics' Award", and today ranks among the world’s leading chamber music ensembles. This is impressively documented by its intense and frequent concert tours through out the world (both alone and with outstanding chamber music performers like Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, Aurèle Nicolet, and Kristian Zimerman), by its performances at the world's most important festivals, as well as by the master classes it has given throughout Europe, North America, and Asia. Important composers, such as Krzysztof Penderecki and Hans-Werner Henze, have dedicated works to this ensemble. A diverse public has come to know the DEUTSCHES STREICHTRIO through its numerous radio and television productions.
The ensemble's discography of more than 40 CDs includes all of the most important works composed for string trio.
