Stella Maris Trio is a new ensemble formed by three professional musicians living in Devon and Somerset. The trio members are graduates of the best European music institutions such as the Academy of Music in Milan and Oxford University; the youngest member Victoria will begin her studies at the Royal Northern College of Music in the Autumn. The musicians have an extensive performing experience in the UK and abroad. The combination of two different voice types, soprano and mezzo-soprano accompanied by piano, gives a rich range of concert repertoire to perform, including various arias and duets for singers and piano solo pieces. Although working collectively as an ensemble, each member is also represented as a soloist.
