Winner of the first annual “Alumni Ventures” award from Yale University in 2008, the string trio Virginia Virtuosi performs chamber music in innovative ways that listeners have described as “turning classical music cool” (The Fairfax Connection). In addition to performances at the Corcoran Gallery of Art, the National Gallery of Art, and the Kennedy Center, Virginia Virtuosi partners with the Arlington Public Schools, Fairfax County Public Schools, Frying Pan Park and the Virginia Commission for the Arts to provide interactive musical programs for youth and adults in Virginia, Maryland, and Washington DC. Virginia Virtuosi utilizes and engages a broad spectrum of disciplines to educate and excite audiences about the classical music tradition while continuing the longevity of the art form.
