"The excellent Osiris Trio,visiting the Frick Collection,showed graciousness and musical fitness;created a twist of edgy brilliance.Extending right through the concert, was the encouraging zest of the performers:their largeness in every musical dimension of color , dynamic range and expression, and their consistently well balanced togetherness as an ensemble."

LE FIGARO

“They play the music brilliantly. The rhythmical richness of Martin`s piano trio, the attractive approach to Dvorak`s Dumky and the virtuoso gimmicks and jokes of Charles Ives all add up to chamber music performed at the highest level” – HP/De Tijd

“By the way, why is the Osiris Trio not yet world famous?” – Parool

“Tender musings and magical dialogues...such a mature performance of one of the highlights of the chamber music repertoire is seldom heard.” – Telegraaf

“most obvious is their driving force...invariably performed in the most sublime way . . . audibly kindred spirits . . . a crystal-clear three-dimensional performance . . . an extraordinary musicality with a deceptive touch of simplicity.” – NRC Handelsblad

“The top quality performances and persistence of the Osiris Trio has brought the piano trio as genre back on the chamber music stage.” – Volkskrant

“Particularly in Ives and Shostakovich it becomes clear that we are dealing with three musicians of exceptional stature” – Luister

“The Osiris Trio plays Beethoven and Dvorák straight from the shoulder, almost as if the ink on the paper only just dried . . . close-knit ensemble playing and ingenious manipulation of the tempi. Trio-playing at its best.” – Haagse Courant

My husband and I attended the incredible performance of the Osiris Piano Trio on Sunday at The Spreckles Performing Arts Center. They are truly gifted artists! We are still reveling in the after glow of their performance. And, we are so glad we bought a CD so we can continue to enjoy them in the years to come.
