“Extremely lively, expressive, and yet exact, technically perfect - but never inanimate. In the second movement in particular an all-embracing tension was developing. Even before the intermission, the applause of the visitors of the master-concert was euphoric.”

“Even on Good Friday morning, the 700 seats are well occupied when an Austrian trio plays Schubert, followed by Clara Schumann’s Trio for pianoforte and her husband Robert’s first Trio in d-minor. Admirably sustained, intensive, and tense does this German music sound, as performed by Trio Alba.

„Youthful energy as had not been experienced this summer in Euphrasius Basilica before, and an impeccable and passionate musical performance fascinated the audience. Standing ovations and intensive applause followed. Trio Alba deserved it for every single note played. Part of the audience even remained on the spot a er the obvious end of the concert.“

„With pliable contours and great passion the young Trio Alba emphasized romantic elegance and songfulness in Mendelssohn’s first piano trio of 1839.“

„Trio Alba presented a program as it should be. Between two standard works they placed pieces of women composers that probably had never been performed in Salzburg before. The young and passionate ensemble handed out a very enjoyable visiting card. The audience enjoyed the refreshing performance that reached its climax in Robert Schumann’s trio in d-minor. The three musicians played this work not only with an absolutely safe technique but also with an immediate and exploding passion, with a sense of shining tone-color and with miraculously adapted lyricism.“

„They provided not only technically impeccable interpretations, but let you hear and feel their hearts as well.“

„The Trio Alba managed a splendidly thoughtful grasp of Mendelssohn‘s Trio No. 2, overflowing with expressive joy and technical panache, however not robbing the work of its delicate secrets.“

„Constantly in visual contact with each other, the three young musicians shared their joy of performing with the audience. The perfectly attuned trio convinced with great air, ease and temperament. With amazing balance and finely tuned structure, they achieved a harmonious entity. A brilliant finale brought the audience to break out in frenetic applause.“

„..these young people showed that the language of music finds common ground for such diverse people as a Chinese pianist, a German violinist and an Austro-Italian cellist. They form an accomplished team with very similar ideas of phrasing and execution... These artists should have a fine career.“

„The peak of quality was the concert by the Trio Alba ... Throughout the concert, the young trio showed a rare maturity in their interpretation. The musicians managed with great empathy and a wide range of timbres always to bring the music to wherever they intended.“
