The flute, viola, and harp ensemble first appeared in 1915 through the work of Claude Debussy. Emmanuelle Ophèle, Odile Auboin, and Ghislaine Petit-Volta continue the journey begun by the Second Sonata with the Trio Antara, founded in 2005.
While these three accomplished musicians maintain close relationships with contemporary composers, Antara – with its desire to take the audience on a journey through all musical eras – offers a varied and fascinating repertoire, ranging from Jean-Philippe Rameau to Peter Eötvös, occasionally using transcriptions. Designed to spark curiosity and foster dialogue between the audience and the performers, these programs allow masterpieces from music history to coexist harmoniously.
These unique combinations are not merely ambitious musical challenges; they represent another way of experiencing music, as proposed by Antara. Each Trio concert is thus an invitation to suspend time, to listen, feel, share, and to restore the place of pleasure and poetry.
