The Adagio Trio was founded in 1985 in Cincinnati, Ohio. Kathryn Daniels, Michael Daniels, and Linda Grieser, the founding members, perform regularly for concerts, religious services, weddings, and receptions. In 1990 Michael took the position of co-principal cellist with the Virginia Symphony, and the Daniels moved to Norfolk, Virginia. The trio continued to work together, however, and released their first CD Stillpoint in 1997. Over 12,000 copies of Stillpoint and Sanctuary(1999) have been sold in the Hampton Roads and Cincinnati areas. They have been a huge favorite with WHRO-FM (Norfolk, VA)listeners, and are the best selling independent classical CDs Joseph Beth Booksellers in Cincinnati. The overwhelming response to these collections of meditative music led the trio to create their Christmas recording Winter Gift. In 2005, the trio produced their fourth CD "Evensong".To date, the trio has sold over 37,000 units of their music!
Why this name?
The name Adagio was decided because most of our music is slow and relaxing.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Independent musicians such as the Adagio Trio have been able to show our music to a wider audience.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
We are not looking to sign with a major label at this point. We're enjoying self-promotion way too much.
Your influences?
John Michael Talbot, Kim Robertson, Yo Yo Ma
Favorite spot?
Sitting at home by the fire.
