Varsovia Piano Trio, whose line-up consists of Ewa Skardowska- piano, Adam Zarzycki- violin and Piotr Hausenplas- cello, was formed in 2004. The artistic aim of the group is to popularize the chamber music grand repertoire, including the Polish one. The members of Trio called it “Varsovia” because all are graduates from the Chopin Academy of Music in Warsaw (now the Frederick Chopin University of Music). Currently two of them, with doctor degree teach at their alma mater. Varsovia Piano Trio has given concerts in Poland, France, Slovenia, Turkey, Denmark, Romania, Moldavia, Finland, Byelorussia and Czech Republic where it received audience recognition as well as excellent critics’ reviews.
