Matthew Trusler on violin, cellist Thomas Carroll and Ashley Wass on piano collaborate under a name first used in the early 1900s by a group of ‘artistic outcasts’ including Ravel and Stravinsky.

Trio Apaches have quickly been embraced on the international concert scene and are unanimously praised for the infectious joy and virtuosity of their performances and the innovative nature of their programmes.

They share a desire to focus on innovative projects and challenging cross-genre collaborations, as well as to present masterworks of the trio repertoire in unfamiliar contexts.

At their concert at Portsmouth Guildhall on Monday their programme includes Beethoven’s Piano Trio In D, Op. 70 No. 1 The Ghost, Mendelssohn’s Piano Trio No. 2 In C Minor, Op. 66, and Ravel’s Piano Trio in A minor.
