REVIEWS

"The Liebermann Trio, which was commissioned and premiered by this ensemble, was the centerpiece of the program. Tonal and full of wonderfully melodic writing, the piece is also quite moody and slightly theatrical. It moves quickly, yet convincingly, from quiet, introspective sections to absolutely glowing passages.”
— Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

“Liebermann’s op.87 is a vibrant, colorful piece that is both musically and dramatically compelling…Throughout the Trio, Liebermann celebrates the unique sonic palette embodied by the combination of flute, cello, and piano…the Liebermann Trio is a decidedly ensemble affair, and one that explores a remarkable and satisfying range of instrumental colors and moods.”
