Bishop Auckland Music Society 2026 concert series closes in September with Chloë Piano Trio (violin, cello & piano). They will perform on Friday 11 September 2026, 7.30pm at Bishop Auckland Methodist Church.
The Chloé Piano Trio, Tunnell Trust Award Winners 2024/25, was formed in 2017 by talented emerging musicians at the Royal College of Music, London. They previously were Kirckman Trust Young Artists and winners of the Royal Philharmonic Society Henderson Chamber Music Prize 2021. They have performed across the UK and abroad (France, Switzerland, Italy and the Netherlands).
Upcoming engagements for 2026 include Beethoven’s Triple Concerto in Leiderdorp with the Symfonieorkest LKO and two concert tours in Scotland. They will also be releasing their first CD featuring music by Lili Boulanger and Kelly-Marie Murphy.
The repertoire of the trio ranges from Baroque and Classical periods to modern and newly commissioned music. They are also highly interested in the performance of works written by women composers and have recorded such works at Abbey Road Studios as part of their ongoing collaboration with the Abbey Road Institute.
Notable appearances include performing for HRH King Charles during his President Visit at the Royal College of Music in March 2020, their debut recital at Kings Place London in December 2023 and several performances in the Netherlands of Beethoven’s Triple Concerto with the Ad Hoc Orchestra and Mark Snitselaar in January 2024. Both Maria and Jobine are grateful to be playing on beautiful string instruments and bows on loan to them from the Dutch National Instrument Foundation.
