Intro



This impressive recording comes from an ensemble that is reaching its maturity in a superb way.

BBC Music Magazine, Jessica Duchen / January 2024


"The result of all this time-biding is a debut recording we should all listen to…it´s hard to know how Trio Isimsiz could have bettered such artistry and distinctiveness."

The Strad, Charlotte Gardner / March 2018


"They are well-matched players who demonstrated exquisite ensemble playing in their performances. From the Trio Isimsiz we will certainly hear a lot in the future."

IOCO - Kultur im Netz / Festival de Stavanger Norway / August 2016
