TRIO VOICE, CELLO & PIANO

A unique collaboration between three innovative and generous musicians, three friends and three stage lovers : Patricia Petibon, Christian-Pierre La Marca and Susan Manoff. An astonishing classical trio that combines vocal and instrumental music in an intimate and personal way.
