After performing together for seven years, the Morton Trio is delighted to announce the upcoming release of their debut album with Atoll Records, featuring not one but two Brahms Horn Trios…
Alongside his iconic Horn Trio in Eb Major op. 40, the album also includes Brahms’ Piano Trio in B Major op. 8, arranged for violin, horn, and piano by trio violinist Arna Morton, and Arna’s brand-new composition for the ensemble, Summer.
Composed of husband and wife duo, Alex and Arna Morton, and pianist Liam Wooding, Morton Trio has been delighting and engaging audiences with charismatic performances throughout Aotearoa New Zealand and abroad for close to eight years.
Following several successful tours with Chamber Music New Zealand and UK-Based Pettman/Royal Overseas League, Morton Trio has firmly established their reputation as one of Aotearoa’s most innovative classical music ensembles through their discovery and performance of lesser known works for the genre alongside expanding the horn trio repertoire through their own arrangements and compositions.
