Hailed as “exacting and exciting musicians” by the LA Times, the three sisters of the Ahn Trio (Lucia on the piano, Angella on the violin, and Maria on the cello) have earned a distinguished reputation for embracing 21st century classical music with their unique style and innovative collaborations. Born in Seoul, Korea, and educated at the Juilliard School in New York City, the Trio brings a new energy and excitement to the music world. Such luminary composers as Mark O’ Conner, Michael Nyman, Maurice Jarre, Pat Metheny, Paul Schoenfield, Kenji Bunch, Nikolai Kapustin, and Paul Chihara have written works for them. The Ahns have performed in all 50 states and in over 30 countries, and have recorded six albums. The Trio formed LAMP (Lucia Angella Maria Productions), producing “Lullaby For My Favorite Insomniac,” which led to a fruitful relationship with Sony. Whether performing in Vienna’s Musikverein, New York’s Lincoln Center, Leipzig’s Gewandhaus, Beijing’s Concert Hall, Teatro Colon in Buenos Aires or Istanbul’s Aya Irini in Topkapi Palace, The White House at a State Dinner or touring in China or throughout Korea, they share their innovative spirit and ever-evolving vision of music.
