Iris Trio

The Iris Trio will perform chamber music by Mozart, Ravel and McKee.

Inspired by the three upright petals of the Iris, the Iris Piano Trio - violinist Sara Matayoshi, cellist Lauren Latessa and pianist Jessica McKee- was formed in September of 2016 with the dual mission of performing chamber music at the highest level and serving the community around them. The group performs frequently across the mid-Atlantic area and serves as the ensemble in residence for the Music Project at Charles E. Smith Life Communities in Rockville, MD. In this role, the trio collaborates with elderly residents from four of CESLCs
retirement homes, leading open rehearsals, concerts, group programs and one-on-one projects. Through their music, they provide countless opportunities for residents, staff and musicians alike to transform their daily experience of the world. The upcoming 2018-2019 season includes performances and presentations at the University of Maryland in College Park, MD, the Peabody Conservatory in Baltimore MD and the Arts Club of Washington.
