Trio Caspar Gold Medal Tour
2026-10-05 - 2026-10-12 | IN
2026 Fischoff Competition String Division Gold Medal Winner Trio Caspar returns to the Midwest for their Gold Medal Tour!
Trio Caspar was awarded the Gold Medal, Lift Every Voice Prize, and Horszowski Trio Prize for Piano Ensemble at the 2026 Fischoff Competition in the Senior String Division, as well as the Audience Award and 2nd Prize at the 2026 Yellow Springs Chamber Music Competition.
The ensemble is an innovative union of three individual voices. Founded in 2024 by clarinetist Andrea Caputo, violinist Jason Moon, and pianist Bogang Hwang, Trio Caspar aims to bring a fresh perspective of the highest standard to chamber works that are less frequently performed. The name pays homage to the German painter Caspar David Friedrich, whose exploration of the complexity of individualism inspires the trio’s distinctive sound. 2025-26 season highlights include a debut recital at the Colburn Conservatory and a performance of Messiaen’s Quartet for the End of Time alongside cellist Gary Hoffman.
Trio Caspar is the first group to be named as the Colburn Conservatory’s inaugural Honors Chamber Music Ensemble, and mentored by Colburn faculty members Jonathan Brown (Cuarteto Casals), Yehuda Gilad, Fabio Bidini, and Martin Beaver (Tokyo String Quartet). The ensemble has just recorded their debut album featuring works of Igor Stravinsky, Paul Schoenfeld, Libby Larsen and Robert Schumann, which will be released on the Delos recording label in the 2026-27 season.
