     About

    Trio 258

    The members of TRIO 258 are pianist Lestari Scholtes, violinist Eduardo Paredes Crespo and cellist Leonard Besseling, three inspirational musicians sharing a rich background in chamber music both at home and abroad. The piano trio came together in 2015 in an atmospheric rehearsal room at Keizersgracht 258 in Amsterdam. At the very same address, a few floors lower down, Leonard’s cello had also been built by Leonard’s father, luthier Matthieu Besseling. The trio has performed at the Concertgebouw Amsterdam, Muziekgebouw Eindhoven, TivoliVredenburg Utrecht, Opéra National de Bordeaux and at festivals such as the Storioni Festival and the Dutch Grachtenfestival. They have made several appearances on national television, in programmes such as Podium Witteman and Podium Klassiek, as well as playing regularly on NPO Radio4. TRIO 258 continues to take lessons regularly from teachers such as Joan Berkhemer, Dmitri Ferschtman and Slava Poprugin.
