" It is truly a miracle that this ensamble, unlike most ensembles, had this kind of vision and purpose for its entire existence," says composer Joan Tower, who wrote Rain Waves for the Trio.

"I know that other composers also view this ensemble as one of the most valuable in the 20th and 21st centuries." STRINGS Magazine - February, 2013.
