Eleanor Rigby - Trio Rococo

Trio Rococo has over the years distinguished itself as one of the era’s most original and inventive ensembles. Trio Rococo has firmly established its name both at home and abroad. With the instrumental combination of Harp, Cello and Oboe, the trio has created a unique sound and a quite extensive repertoire which appeals to a very broad audience.

In terms of repertoire, Trio Rococo has always presented ground-breaking new interpretations and exhibited creativity within a number of musical genres. Trio Rococo has in their unique style created completely personal musical fantasies based on the music of Chick Corea, Quincy Jones, Paul Simon, Brian Wilson and Lennon/ McCartney.

With the CD "Classical Mystery Tour - Trio Rococo plays Beatles", Trio Rococo attained not just international recognition as one of the leading classical/rhythm fusion ensembles in the World, but also won the praise of the Beatles’ own producer, George Martin, and placed itself on the Classical Crossover chart in the American magazine "Billboard", the only Danish ensemble to ever have done so, and in Denmark Trio Rococo has been the first classical group to receive a Gold Award.

Trio Rococo’s CD "FRIENDS" was released in October 1996, with music by Paul Simon, Brian Wilson and Niels Eje. On this CD, Trio Rococo again expands the limits for the musical potential of the instruments and introduces new, exciting combinations of the trio’s instruments with modern sample and synthesizer sounds, forming a completely new expression which has already attracted extensive international interest.
