The Frederick R. Koch Foundation Townhouse Series presents a new recording by VC Artist Merz Trio

Comprising pianist Lee Dionne, violinist Brigid Coleridge, and cellist Julia Yang, the trio previously served as the Professional Trio-in-Residence at the New England Conservatory.

Merz Trio is a former first prize winner at the Fischoff Chamber Music Competition and Concert Artists Guild Victor Elmaleh Competition — and was recently awarded first prize at the 2021 Naumburg International Chamber Music Competition, in New York City.

Filmed at the Foundation’s historic Upper East Side townhouse, an architecturally stunning location that provides the perfect backdrop for chamber music performances, the concerts honor the late Frederick R. Koch’s lifelong dedication to supporting the visual and performing arts.
