The Merz Trio are rising stars of the international chamber music scene having won the Naumburg, Fischoff, and Concert Artists Guild competitions and with upcoming debuts at Carnegie Hall, Amsterdam's Concertgebouw, Boston's Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, The Schubert Club in Minneapolis, and Washington’s Strathmore Hall.
