Ahn Trio

The Ahn Trio comprises twin sisters Lucia and Maria on piano and cello, respectively, as well as younger sister Angella, on violin. The group has performed at the College twice before.

Born in Seoul , Korea , the three were educated at the prestigious Juilliard School in New York City . They have been described as redefining the “art and architecture” of chamber music, breathing new life into the standard piano-trio literature with commissioned works from a number of visionary composers.

Lucia, Angella and Maria thrive on dissolving the barriers between art forms. They have fused their work with that of dancers, pop singers, DJ’s, painters, installation artists, photographers, lighting designers, ecologists and even kite makers.

Possessing an enviable combination of talent and style, they have long been natural subjects for the international press. They made their magazine premiere very early on in a Time’s cover story headlined, Asian American Whiz Kids.

The Ahn Trio has also gone on to frequent fashion pages of the likes of Vogue and GQ and, in 2003, they were named three of the 50 Most Beautiful in People in People Magazine.

The Ahn Trio is in high demand, performing and leading master classes and workshops across the United States and around the world. Wherever the Ahns go, they share their innovative spirit and ever-evolving vision of music.

Tickets for the concert are $20 for adults ($25 at the door and $30 for those that include the reception which follows the performance), and $5 for HLSCC and University of the West Indies students. Primary and high school students will be admitted free of charge.

Tickets are available at the HLSCC Paraquita Bay Campus Bookstore, as well as at the Road Town Bakery, Caribbean Insurers Ltd., Sunny Caribbee and Umi Fashions. Special season ticket prices are also being offered.

Friday’s concert begins at the usual time of 8:00 p.m. at the HLSCC Paraquita Bay Auditorium. For further information, persons may contact Marietta Bodley at the College on telephone number 852-7223.
