Called a “Wandering Star” by the Strad Magazine, the Trio (Jean-Marc Phillips-Varjabédian, Violin; Raphaël Pidoux, Cello; and Vincent Coq, Piano) has performed on the most prestigious music stages. They are acclaimed for their technical mastery and an extraordinarily sensitive – almost telepathic style - and have collaborated with artists such as Yehudi Menuhin, Christopher Hogwood, James Loughran, Fayçal Karoui, Marco Guidarini, François-Xavier Roth, and José Areán, and accompanied world-class orchestras, in triple or double concertos.
The Trio Wanderer has released 20 recordings with Harmonia Mundi since 1999, receiving top prizes including Critic's Choice and Editor Choice of Gramophone, CD of the Month' by the BBC Music Magazine, and the Diapason d'Or of the Year, among others. The New York Times declared their interpretation of Mendelssohn's piano trios “the new reference,” and their Schubert Trout Quintet and Hummel Quintet recording is included in Forbes's Top 100 Quality Music Library.
The Trio Wanderer's members all graduated from the Paris' Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique. They studied at Bloomington's School of Music and New York's Julliard School. In 1988, they won the ARD Competition in Munich, and in 1990, they took first place in the Fischoff Chamber Music Competition.
