Artist
The Vienna Piano Trio was founded by violinist Wolfgang Redik, cellist Marcus Trefny and pianist Stefan Mendl in 1988. For almost 20 years, the Vienna Piano Trio has been performing regularly in virtually every major music center in Europe, the Americas, Australia and the Far East. Extensive studies with various highly renowned musicians paved the trio’s way to an international career soon after. The most important teachers and mentors of the ensemble include Isaac Stern, Ralph Kirschbaum and Joseph Kalichstein as well as the members of the Trio di Trieste, the Beaux Arts Trio, the Guarneri Quartet and the LaSalle Quartet. In the summer of 2001, Matthias Gredler replaced Marcus Trefny as the trio’s cellist. In addition to its performances, the ensemble has begun teaching on an increasingly regular basis. The three musicians have given master classes at London’s Wigmore Hall and Royal College of Music, at Sydney’s Conservatory of Music, at the University of Wellington (New Zealand) as well as in Finland, France and the US. Since autumn 2007, Wolfgang Redik teaches as a professor for chambermusic at the University Mozarteum in Salzburg. Wolfgang Redik plays a violin by J.B. Guadagnini from 1772, on loan from the Austrian National Bank. Matthias Gredler plays a cello by J.B. Guadagnini from 1752. The Vienna Piano Trio’s discography includes works by Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Dvoøák, Shostakovich and Schnittke, all released on the British label Nimbus Records. It
