Chiaroscuro, the contagiously enthusiastic trio of critically acclaimed and award winning musicians is comprised of contralto Elizabeth Pétillot,  violist Aurélien Pétillot, and pianist Yuko Kato. As the only professional chamber ensemble dedicated to showcasing the great variety of works written for the magical combination of their beautiful and deep instruments, it has championed the European Romantic masterpieces of Brahms, Bridge, Loeffler and Strauss, as well as many contemporary American works, several of which are featured on its debut CD, New People, released by Albany Records.

The trio’s passionate performances and engaging interactions with its audiences provides a welcoming and unique concert experience akin to a conversation between good friends. Since its inception in 2010, the Chiaroscuro Trio has appeared as guest ensemble at various festivals and concert venues including The New Sounds Festival in Fredonia, NY, the Austin Chamber Music Center Festival in Austin, TX and the Cedarhurst Center for the Arts in Mount Vernon, IL. In December of 2012 the Trio performed on the Live From The Chazen radio show, which was broadcast live on Wisconsin Public Radio. The Chiaroscuro Trio looks forward to its European debut at the Walled City Music Festival in Derry Ireland, during the summer of 2013.
