The International String Trio (IST) is a group of exceptionally talented musicians, all Berklee College of Music, Boston, MA alumni. The group prides itself on its stylistic diversity, delivering Gypsy jazz, Appalachian folk, acoustic world music (Irish, Klezmer, Russian, Italian, French, Bluegrass, etc.), virtuosic classical arrangements, and popular songs from movie soundtracks.
The IST enjoys using the diverse cultural backgrounds of its members, hailing from Russia, Japan, and England, to influence its stylistic diversity and unique performance aesthetic. Performing up to 120 events a year, including festivals, concert halls, jazz clubs, schools, and universities, the IST is experienced at performing at a multitude of venues, thanks to its small size. Their shows are entertaining, as the Trio strives to provide energetic yet intimate performances. With every performance, the trio enjoys leading its audiences on a cultural musical journey as they perform music from countries worldwide. Through these means, their music instantly appeals to a wide range of audiences, both large and small, young and old.
