The Neave Trio has graced both Rochester stages and our airwaves-twice as guests of Live from Hochstein. This is your chance to hear them talk!

On Friday, September 15, the Neave Trio brought a program of Bernstein, Fauré, and Piazzolla to Backstage Pass, just before performing in the opening concert of the Rochester Institute of Technology Performing Artists Concert Series. Violinist Anna Williams, cellist Mikhail Veselov, and pianist Eri Nakamura chatted with host Julia Figueras about the trio's evolution, and its commitment to new works and innovative concert presentations.

A Strong Memorial baby and Greece Arcadia grad, Julia Figueras was the Music Director and mid-day host for WXXI Classical until June 30, 2023 when she retired after more than 26 years of service. She also hosted the award-winning monthly interview/performance show, Backstage Pass.
