The excellent Paddington Trio join us this week in the Shaw Library. Comprised of Tuulia Hero (violin), Patrick Moriarty (cello), and pianist Stephanie Tang (piano). The Paddington Trio ( @paddingtontrio ) is one of its generation's leading ensembles, recognized for its fresh, authoritative interpretations of the great classical canon and exuberant energy in performing today's most compelling contemporary music. Much like the famous bear, Finnish violinist Tuulia Hero, Irish cellist Patrick Moriarty, and American pianist Stephanie Tang first came together at the Paddington Station and made London their home. From the start they achieved a meteoric rise, emerging as First Prize recipients of two prestigious London chamber music competitions: the 70th Royal Over-Seas League Competition and the Parkhouse Award at Wigmore Hall. These early successes led to important debuts at both Wigmore Hall and Kings Place, earning high praise in The Strad Magazine and a 5-star review in The Guardian. Programme to include: Haydn Piano Trio no 39 in G major “Gypsy” Shostakovich Piano Trio No 2 in e minor, op 67 The next lunchtime concert is on Thursday 12 November and will be performed by Emmanuel Bach (violin) and Jennifer Stern (piano). Join the LSE Choir and Orchestra on Tuesday 8 December for the LSE Christmas Concert in the beautiful surroundings of St Clement Danes Church.

Not the same tradition as the lineage above — a genuinely different thread to pull, if you want one.
