The members of the trio are mainly devoted to the chamber music literature of the romantic and contemporary period. In its current programme, the ensemble presents both a premiere (Trio op. 152 by contemporary Norwegian composer Trygve Madsen)

All three members of the ensemble have extensive experience in chamber music.
