The trio will present the three works chronologically, beginning with Piano Trios Nos. 2 and 3, and concluding with No. 1.

All three artists have been praised for their interpretations of Brahms as soloists and colleagues, and Ax and Ma share four Grammy Awards for their recordings of Brahms’s chamber music. With Leonidas Kavakos, they first performed all three Brahms piano trios at the Tanglewood Festival in 2015.
