The Aurora Piano Trio has been praised for its passion, exuberance, lyricism and sensational performances. Violinist Yuel Yawner and cellist Sungyong Lim, members of the Borealis String Quartet, joined with acclaimed pianist, Libby Yu, to form Canada’s most exciting new ensemble, the Aurora Piano Trio. Each of the Trio’s members has performed around the world and brings their extensive chamber music experience together, creating an ensemble of the highest calibre.
Founded in 2019 and mentored by the great Canadian impresario, George Zukerman, the Trio is already garnering much critical acclaim and is taking the Canadian music scene by storm. Debuting for the Whistler Chamber Music Society in the Trio’s first season as part of a Western Canadian tour, the remaining engagements were cancelled due to COVID-19. Since 2021, the Trio has begun rebooking engagements and in September was the season opening concert for a sold-out audience for the Cafe Classico Series at the Langley Community Music School. Earlier in 2022, the Trio also had numerous performances at the Music by the Sea Festival in Victoria, receiving standing ovations.
