Cook Strait Trio: Gore

The Cook Strait Trio (Amber Rainey: piano; Blythe Press: violin; Paul van Houtte: cello) are three New Zealanders with strong European connections: two of them are studying in Europe. They bring this cosmopolitan flavour to their programme:
   Turina: Piano Trio Opus 76
   John Psathas: Island Songs
   Dvorák: Piano Trio Opus 65 in F minor

"The lively rhythms of Spanish composer Turina, the joyous warmth of Dvorak and the fiery dances from John Psathas’ inspired by his Greek origins are just the thing to warm up a NZ winter’s day.”
