The Israel Piano Trio

**The Israel Piano Trio** is a dynamic chamber ensemble known for their vibrant interpretations of Romantic-era classics. Formed in 2009, the trio brings together violinist Itamar Zorman, cellist Michal Korman, and pianist Matan Porat—three acclaimed soloists who blend technical precision with heartfelt expression. Based in Israel but performing globally, they’ve carved a niche for breathing fresh life into cornerstone works by composers like Schumann, Brahms, and Mendelssohn, as heard on their polished recordings for labels like BIS Records and Hyperion.

Whether diving into Brahms’ stormy emotional landscapes or Mendelssohn’s lyrical warmth, the trio’s chemistry shines through their seamless interplay and attention to detail. Beyond the concert stage, they’re passionate about music education, often hosting masterclasses to inspire the next generation of chamber musicians. Their recent albums, including acclaimed takes on Schumann’s piano trios and Brahms’ complete works for the genre, showcase why they’ve become a go-to ensemble for fans of richly textured, emotionally resonant chamber music.
