Andrews Osborne Academy welcomes PROJECT Trio, a passionate, high energy chamber music ensemble comprised of three virtuosic composer/performers from Brooklyn, New York. PROJECT Trio is dedicated to galvanizing artistic awareness through performance, education and community engagement. By combining classical repertoire with elements of hip-hop, jazz and popular music, they have made an impact on audiences of all ages. Bursting onto the scene with their landmark videos, right out of the internet generation, PROJECT Trio is a musical experience defining a new level of entertainment.
Gramophone Magazine recently singled out the group as “an ensemble willing and able to touch on the gamut of musical bases ranging from Baroque to nu-Metal and taking in pretty much every stylism in between,” while The Wall Street Journal hailed the Trio for their “wide appeal, subversive humor and first-rate playing.” The New York Times has called beatboxing flutist Greg Pattillo “the best in the world at what he does.”
The Trio was forged out of a collective desire to draw new and diverse audiences by performing high energy, top quality music. Using social media to broaden their reach beyond the concert stage and classroom, the Trio has its own YouTube channel, which has over 80 million views and 96,000 subscribers, making PROJECT Trio one of the most watched instrumental ensembles on the internet.
PROJECT Trio will be in Residence at Andrews Osborne from April 4-6th, teaching and performing in all divisions, working closely with our elementary and middle school bands, and performing a community concert of their own music and collaboration with Andrews Osborne and Hathaway Brown students. We invite you to support these artistic and educational undertakings by attending this performance on Wednesday, April 5 at 7pm. The proceeds from this concert will benefit the AOA Art and Music Boosters which strives to bring more opportunities like this one to our students and support the art and music programs at Andrews Osborne Academy.
