About the Gryphon Trio

"This is a piano trio that plays with strength and unanimity ... big, bold, almost orchestral performances." -- The Los Angeles Times

Recognized as one of North America's leading chamber ensembles, the Gryphon Trio regularly tours Canada and the U.S., and has also performed in Mexico, Germany, France, Belgium, Russia, Poland and Finland. In addition to their Tenth Anniversary U.S. tour this year, the Trio is slated to perform in Europe, most notably at Finland's renowned Kuhmo Chamber Music Festival and the Brussels Philharmonic Society.

The Trio is named for the gryphon, a mythical creature that is half lion and half eagle. The Gryphon is reputed to be a guardian of treasures and a symbol of the connection between psychic energy and cosmic force.
