Trio Settecento, featuring David Schrader, harpsichord; Rachel Barton, violin; and John Mark Rozendaal cello, has been described as ". . .some of the most refreshing, life-enhancing Baroque playing heard in years" by the Chicago Tribune. The "playing is splendid on all levels—lovely tone, wonderful expressive phrasing, secure technique and strong involvement with the music," according to Classical Pulse. Performing on antique instruments of rare beauty and expressive power, the three virtuosos breathe life into musical masterpieces that capture the dramatic intensity of the Italians, the poetic gestures of the French school, and the profound humanism of J. S. Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven. Trio Settecento's passionate and authoritative interpretations renew the pleasures of hearing beloved music from the Age of Enlightenment while also revealing the delights of new discoveries. Their imagination, vigor, technical polish, and historical insight have made the Trio's performances appealing to audiences and critics alike.
