Omega String Trio

Event Description

The Omega Trio is made up of three of Canada’s finest chamber musicians, who first came together as a string trio (violin, viola, cello) through a love of playing together, and a wish to play the little-heard repertoire for this combination, some of it by the most famous composers. Named after a now-defunct garage for repairing French cars in Vancouver (don’t ask), they have performed in unusual spaces, including dilapidated private homes, luxurious mansions, cathedrals and small churches, as well as in traditional concert venues. Their repertoire comprises music from the 18th century to the present day, including masterworks by Schubert, Beethoven and Schnittke.
