Hailing from the heart of Europe’s classical tradition, the Vienna-based Cuore Piano Trio brings a refined yet daring voice to the chamber music stage. Formed by three musicians united by a deep commitment to the piano trio repertoire, the ensemble draws inspiration from Vienna’s rich musical lineage—home to Haydn, Schubert, and Brahms—while embracing the challenges and emotional landscapes of 20th-century works.
