THE SCHULHOFF TRIO – so named when

three friends from the Royal Conservatoire

in The Hague decided to study Erwin

Schulhoff’s “Divertissement”, which led

them to name the trio in his honour. The

Schulhoff Trio has since then grown to be

one of the finest wind ensembles from The

Netherlands. Their presentations combine

engaging, lively and adventurous

programming. The three of them combine

highly distinctive playing into a unique

ensemble experience. All three musicians

are leading artists in their field and are

soloists in their respective orchestra’s and

have toured the world. The Trio is joined on

this tour by Sergey Smirnov on piano.
