Returning artists Elizabeth Bergmann and Marcel Bergmann join percussionist Rod Thomas Squance in a distinguished collaboration for piano and percussion. With a dazzling array of instruments and an assured command of virtuosity, Percussiano3 brings the excitement of a percussion ensemble into the context of the classical concert tradition. Their program presents masterworks and inventive transcriptions for percussion and piano, spanning Bach, Schubert, Ravel, Chabrier, Copland, Rachmaninoff, Piazzolla, Brubeck, and Saint-Saëns, alongside original compositions..

It all began at the Banff Centre for the Arts some 20 years ago, where the musicians first met and performed together over several weeks. Their connection, both personally and musically, was instant and from that time they have collaborated on a huge variety of musical projects covering a wide range of repertoire from standard classical to contemporary chamber music, and from jazz to a children’s opera production. They have recorded for the CBC and for several years, performed extensively as members of the award-winning Calgary-based Land’s End Chamber Ensemble.

Their enthusiasm is infectious as audiences experience the dynamic energy and communication of the three friends performing together. The trio enjoys connecting with audiences through their lively performances and engaging explanations, and loves taking the time to speak with enthusiastic audience members after concerts.
