240 Strings will present a free community concert on March 10 at 7 p.m. at First Parish Church in Portland. The Portland Piano Trio will play music by Johannes Brahms and jazz-based composer David Baker, and some 240 Strings students will also perform.
The Portland Piano Trio, recognized as “among the city’s must-hear groups” by critic Allan Kozinn, has played public performances and house concerts throughout New England. Musicians Tracey Jasas-Hardel (violin), Jing Li (cello), and Anastasia Antonacos (piano) are committed to bringing “energy, understanding, technique, insight, great beauty, humor, impressive ensemble, and shared musical values” to the music they play, according to an organization press release. Their varied programs feature traditional repertoire alongside newer works.
The Portland Piano Trio is the resident ensemble of 240 Strings, which builds community among Portland, Maine youth through subsidized music lessons and affordable chamber music concerts.
