(July 25, 2016) Kanon Trio is formed by Diego Maccagnola on piano, Lena Yokoyama on violin and Alessandro Copia on the cello. They represent friendship, art, and a passion for chamber music. The three musicians prepare for Beijing, the next stop on their tour where they will be in concert this evening July 25 at 19:30 at the Italian Cultural Institute of Beijng. The trio of young musicians from different parts of the world are under the guidance of the Trio of Parma (Ivan Rabaglia, Enrico Bronzi, Alberto Miodini). They have performed in numerous concerts in prestigious venues in Italy and abroad. The Kanon Trio have also taken specialist courses at the Accademia Chigiana of Siena (Alexder Lonquich) and have specialised in the best schools in the United Kingdom, Norway and Austria. Last February, the Trio was invited as a ‘group in residence’ at Snape Maltings (UK) for the Aldeburgh Music Festival. In 2015 they won the 21st Giulio Rospigliosi National Chamber Music Contest, including the public’s award. The Trio have also won the special Jury’s award at the 22nd International Brahms Competition of Poertschach and the “Chamber Music Award” at the international Sommer Akademie Prag-Wien-Budapest, an important recognition sponsored by the Haydn Institute of Vienna.
