The Czechoslovak trio Trio Clavio was established in 2013 with the help of Polish clarinetist and conductor Jakub Bokun. Since it's successful debut at the Clarimania Festival in Wroclaw, Poland, the ensemble has been performing across Europe. This chamber ensemble put together three distinct musical personalities- pianist Lucie Soutorova Valcova, violinist Lucia Fulka Kopsova, and clarinetist Jana Cernohouzova. All three musicians have Yamaha scholarships and all have performed as soloists or orchestra members with the South Czech Philharmonic, Moravian Philharmonic, Brno Philharmonic, and many others. Trio Clavio was awarded first prize in a competition in Vidnava in 2014, and in 2016 they were awarded first and fourth prize at the International Competition of Chamber Ensebles in Padova Italy. This release features trio works by canon composers Igor Stravinsky and Bela Bartok, as well as works by modern composers like Juraj Filas and Sylvie Bodorova, who wrote these works specifically for Trio Clavio.
