Florestan Trio
The Florestan Trio was a piano trio formed in 1995 in London. Its members were Anthony Marwood (violin), Richard Lester (cello), and Susan Tomes (piano).
They won two major awards in 1999: the Gramophone Award for chamber music for their recording of Schumann’s first two trios, and the Royal Philharmonic Society’s Music Award for Chamber Ensemble.
On 13 June 2009 they performed Beethoven’s Symphony No. 2 in D major in Beethoven’s rarely heard arrangement for piano trio.
They recorded many albums for the Hyperion label. Their final concerts were at Wigmore Hall in London in January 2012.
