The Chambana Arts Trio, featuring Aaron Jacobs on violin, Ka-Wai Yu on cello and Tatiana Shustova on piano, will perform a program of chamber music on Sunday, March 22, at 3 p.m. in Rammelkamp Chapel at Illinois College. 

The trio will present a recital entitled “Summer of 1886: Brahms at Lake Thun.” In addition to their concert at Illinois College, they will perform at Bradley University, Eastern Illinois University and as part of a global mission benefit in Urbana-Champaign. 

The recital features Johannes Brahms' three chamber masterpieces: Cello Sonata No. 2 in F Major, Op. 99; Violin Sonata No, 2 in A Major, Op. 100; and the Piano Trio No. 3 in C Minor, Op. 101. These works were all written during the summer of 1886 during Brahms’ stay at Lake Thun in Switzerland.

The members of the Chambana Arts Trio met during doctoral studies at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, inspiring the name "Chambana.” The trio was established in May of 2014 when they performed Beethoven's Triple Concerto with the Jacksonville Symphony Orchestra. 

The concert is free and open to the public.
