Trio Con Brio Copenhagen

A wonderful young piano trio called Trio Con Brio Copenhagen stopped by our studios recently for a visit. They sat down for an interview with host Fred Child and performed some inspired chamber music by Ravel and Smetana. Plus, we'll hear Wagner's overture to "The Flying Dutchman" from this year's Aspen Music Festival.
