CONERT OF THE TRIO HÈRMES | AL BUSTAN FESTIVAL

ABF 2a

The Embassy of Italy in Lebanon and the Italian Cultural Institute of Beirut organise, for the Al Bustan International Festival of Music and Performing Arts, a free concert by the Trio Hèrmes, composed of Ginevra Bassetti, violin, Francesca Giglio, cello, and Greta Maria Lobefaro, piano.

Programme to be announced.

The Trio Hèrmes, formed by Ginevra Bassetti (violin), Francesca Giglio (cello) and Greta Maria Lobefaro (piano), has quickly established itself on the Italian and international music scenes. After training at the Arrigo Boito Conservatory in Parma with the Trio di Parma and Pierpaolo Maurizzi, the ensemble continued its studies at the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia and the Accademia Walter Stauffer with the Quartetto di Cremona.

Selected by the MDW University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna and by the ECMA – European Chamber Music Academy, the Trio has received numerous awards, including the “Città di Moncalieri” Prize, the “Crescendo” Prize and the Alberghini Prize. In 2023, it was named Ensemble of the Year by Le Dimore del Quartetto.

The Trio took part in the Accademia Chigiana project Giovani Talenti Musicali Italiani nel Mondo, where it was awarded the Giovanna Maniezzo Prize in 2024. The ensemble performs regularly at major festivals and concert institutions in Italy and Europe, and has also debuted in Spain, France, England and Sweden, with tours scheduled in America and China in 2026.

The Trio recorded a CD for the Brilliant Classics label dedicated to Ildebrando Pizzetti and was recognized by Rai Radio 3 as one of the most promising ensembles of its generation. Actively engaged in contemporary music and interdisciplinary projects, the Trio has been supported since 2025 by Pirastro and Steinway & Sons Milan.
