Editorial Review:

Product Description:
The Violeto Trio is an established group which performs at special events throughout California. Listeners are usually surprised at the full sound the trio achieves, especially with pieces like Bolero and Rhapsody in Blue, originally written for symphony orchestra. The trio achieves this full sound partly by the use of double-stops and chords played by the string players and the unique blending sound of the clarinet with the string instruments.
