JOHN WALZ cello ROGER WILKIE violin Founded in 1979, this renowned ensemble has played more than 1,000 concerts in the United States, Canada, and Europe. They serve as trio-in-residence at the Idyllwild Arts Summer Program in Southern California. In 1986, the trio made its New York debut at Lincoln Center in a concert benefitting the New York chapter of the Alzheimer's Foundation. "Pacific Trio's debut concert at Alice Tully Hall could easily have stood on its own merits, but the players had the generosity to turn the program into a benefit, donating all the proceeds to the Alzheimer's Disease and Related Disorders Association. The members of the trio played with warmth, expertise, and unanimity . . .elegantly tapered, yet directly emotive playing." ~ The New York Times Freewill donation |
