Phoenix Trio

I feel very blessed at the moment to have the chance to play chamber music with people I love, admire and respect! The next project is the debut of a new trio with Lina Andonovka (flute) and Harold Gretton (guitar), named after the legendary Phoenix Pub in Canberra, the city where we all met and played together as students at the ANU School of Music in 2008.

Lina and Harold are travelling from Ireland and Australia for two intimate, powerful chamber music concerts in Berlin, featuring music by JS Bach, Francesco Molino, Leo Brouwer, Elena Kats-Chernin and Dusan Bogdanovic.

Andonovska/Hawkins/Gretton (Phoenix Trio) come together for this concert of new and old, reimagining some chamber music masterpieces alongside recently penned compositions for the combination. Collectively, the performers have performed with some of the most acclaimed ensembles on the globe including the Australian Chamber Orchestra, Kammerakademie Potsdam and the Deutsches Kammerorchester and individually have growing reputations as international soloists and chamber musicians. The trio formed in 2008 when they were all students at the Australian National University. After parting ways for a decade, the trio have come together to perform a series of concerts around Europe and Australia during the 2018/2019 season.
