Reviews
Intro
The following is a sample introduction you might use when introducing Trio Bella to your audience:
“We are about to enjoy the musical personalities of Trio Bella, led by harpist Andrea Stern. Andrea’s first inspiration to play the harp was Harpo Marx in the Marx Brothers movies. She studied at the Cleveland Institute and New England Conservatory, and has won several solo competitions, including a concerto competition in Venezuela where she was principal harpist with the Orquesta Sinfonia de Maracaibo. From sprightly to sublime, please join me in welcoming the musical talents of Trio Bella!”
