TrioBauge & Vebjørn Anvik
A trio of siblings at Siljustøl with a highly personal programme.

TrioBauge consists of the Kyvik Bauge brothers Sverre and Einar and their sister Ragnhild. Growing up in a musical family they played together throughout their childhood, but the trio was formally instigated in the autumn of 2014, and performed in public for the first time at the Risør Chamber Music Festival the following summer. Since then they have given their own concerts at the Oslo Grieg Festival and the Smöga Chamber Music Festival. In 2016 TrioBauge was invited to New York to perform in the concert series Chamber Music Live in LeFrak Concert Hall, and in 2017 they make their Bergen International Festival debut with their teacher and pianist Vebjørn Anvik.

For the concert the trio has chosen works by Mozart, Kodály and Sæverud. The concert opens with Knut Nystedt's String Trio, which has special significance for them: the composer was a family friend, and his son personally encouraged Sverre, Einar and Ragnhild to perform the work. In addition to several concert performances, they also played the work at the memorial gathering after Knut Nystedt's funeral.
