ABOUT

Trio Tempestoso is a vibrant chamber music ensemble, praised for its expressive interpretations of both classical and contemporary repertoire.

​

The trio’s diverse repertoire invites listeners to continuously rediscover the unique sonorities of their distinctive instrumentation—whether through the works of J. Haydn, M. Ravel, I. Stravinsky, or modern-day composers.

​

The trio consists of Slovenian musicians: clarinetist Andraž Golob (bass clarinetist with the Berliner Philharmoniker), accordionist Sanja Mlinarič, and cellist Urban Megušar.

The young artists have performed at festivals and in concert halls across Europe. In 2022, they made their debut at the Konzerthaus Berlin, followed by a performance at the Musikverein Graz in 2023. They had previously played at the Slovenian Philharmonic.

Their performances have been broadcast by Deutschlandfunk (Germany), Ö1 (Austria), Radio Slovenia, and Radio New Zealand.

​

In 2022, they received the Dwight and Ursula Mamlok Prize for outstanding interpretation of contemporary music.

In 2019, they were awarded the Boris Pergamenschikow Prize, one of the most prestigious contemporary music competitions, held under the honorary patronage of Mrs. Tatjana Pergamenschikow and Sir András Schiff. The jury praised the trio’s “high-level instrumental interpretation” and wrote that their “exciting performance combines musical tradition with the spirit of the present and points toward the future.”

​

The Trio is currently based in Berlin, where they completed their Master's Degree in Chamber Music under Professor Martin Spangenberg at the Hochschule für Musik Hanns Eisler.

The trio gratefully acknowledges the support of Stadt Graz, the Fromm Foundation at Harvard University, and the RVW Trust.
