This organic and protective imagery and its creative application to chamber music inspires the performers of the critically acclaimed Calyx Piano Trio. Catherine French, violin, Jennifer Lucht, cello, and Nina Ferrigno, piano, the group’s bright and accomplished musicians, have earned Calyx the reputation of defying stereotypes with a repertoire that combines classical masterworks with original pieces by living composers.

Year after year we return to the Berkshires for the magical summer season and musical camaraderie. For 2018, our 49th season, we will be performing in the historic Ventfort Hall, just down the street from the Trinity Church where we have performed in years past. We look forward to seeing you there.
