Combining the talents of three award-winning soloists, the Weiss-Kaplan-Newman Trio brings to each performance its distinctive fusion of authority and experience, energy and passion. These three highly acclaimed musicians - pianist Yael Weiss, violinist Mark Kaplan and cellist Clancy Newman – comprise an ensemble that embraces the music of the future while offering fresh insights into three centuries of masterworks.

Founded in 2001 (originally as Sequenza), the trio has presented concerts throughout the US, Europe and the Middle East, including recent appearances at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC, at Wigmore Hall in London, at Princeton, UCLA, Indiana and Oxford Universities, the Prague Festival, Jeju Island Music Festival in Korea and the Festival of the Sound in Canada. A recording of Paul Chihara's Ain't No Sunshine, which the trio commissioned, was released on Bridge Records in 2008. In addition, a selection from the trio’s appearance on the nationally broadcast St. Paul Sunday was chosen for the show’s “Best of the Year” CD.

The ensemble embraces the repertoire of the future while paying tribute to three centuries of masterworks, with great performances exploring the repertoire from the first piano trios to exciting newly commissioned works. Their innovative programming offers not only piano trios, but options on mixed repertoire for other instrumental combinations -- both from within the group and with the addition of guest artists on special programs.

The Weiss-Kaplan-Newman Trio has been uniformly praised for imaginative programming and exciting performances. The ensemble also offers residencies, providing information and inspiration through concert performances, master classers and private pedagogy.
