Piano trios

Triple Forte, Canada’s elite piano trio presents its first CD recording. With near-limitless ability, violinist Jasper Wood, cellist Yegor Dyachkov and pianist David Jalbert will delight listeners with their performances of music by Maurice Ravel, Charles Ives, and Dmitri Shostakovich. Jasper Wood has been awarded both the coveted Sylva Gelber Prize (1996) and the prestigious Virginia Parker Award (2004) from the Canada Council for the Arts. Named Canadian “Artist of the Year” by the CBC in 2000, Yegor Dyachkov “is undoubtedly a cellist of great stature ... he has it all.” (La Presse, Montreal). A national and international prize-winner, David Jalbert has won two Opus Awards, and was the 2007 laureate of the prestigious Virginia Parker Prize of the Canada Council for the Arts.
