Trio Ondata - Haydn and Beethoven Sunday Soundscapes

Sunday Soundscapes will present the award-winning Trio Ondata in a program of music by Ludwig van Beethoven and Joseph Haydn. Trio Ondata is a New Haven-based ensemble consisting of violinist Michael Ferri, cellist Miriam Liske-Doorandish and pianist Anthony Ratinov. Formed at the Yale School of Music in 2022, this bold and exploratory ensemble swiftly garnered attention on the national stage, winning the Silver Medal and the inaugural Horszowski Trio Prize at the 2022 Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition. In the same year they won the Yale School of Music Chamber Music Competition, and in 2023 they received both the Gold Medal and the Audience Choice Awards at the Yellow Springs Chamber Music Competition.

Trio Ondata presents a wide-ranging repertoire both old and new, from classical works to contemporary music. They have enjoyed summer residencies at the Mimir Chamber Music Festival in Texas and at the Avaloch Farm Music Institute in New Hampshire. In their Sunday Soundscapes debut concert, they will offer trios by Beethoven and Haydn, as well as selections from those composers’ seldom-heard arrangements of Scottish and Welsh folksongs for voices and piano trio. Joining them for the folksongs will be former Metropolitan Opera baritone Edward Crafts, soprano Emma Rogers and tenor Diego Valdez.
