Contemporary Chamber Music Ensemble
CV
Trio Metamorfoze is a chamber music ensemble that unites three Latvian musicians - flutists Liene Dobicina and Zane Jurevica and pianist Zane Rubesa. Established in 2015, the Trio have proven their high-quality artistic performance at competitions, concerts and festivals in Latvia and elsewhere in Europe, bringing hypnotizing performances to a rather simple set of instruments – two flutes and piano.
Trio Metamorfoze wants to emphasize the diversity of the sound of the ensemble - two flutes and piano, performing chamber music of the 21st century, to promote public interest and knowledge about contemporary chamber music, as well as to collaborate with composers, discovering more and more diverse approaches to embrace the sound of 21st Century.
All three members of the ensemble have graduated Master's study program in Jāzeps Vītolas Academy of Music of Latvia, as well as individually - individually studying in Royal Conservatoire of Brussels (Belgium), Conservatorium Maastricht, Zuyd Hogeschool (The Netherlands). Currently, Trio Metamorfoze is deepening their knowledge in contemporary music with Helen Bledsoe (USA/ Germany, Ensemble Musikfabrik Köln, Germany) and at the International Divertimento Ensemble Academy (Milan, Italy), as well as regularly attends master classes with important 21st-Century musicians.
