Amatis Trio Announces New Member
The piano trio welcomes their new pianist Andrei Gologan, who is a protégé of pianist and conductor Sir Andras Schiff

Established in Amsterdam in 2014, the Amatis Trio comprises founding members violinist Lea Hausmann, cellist Samuel Shepherd — and now, pianist Andrei Gologan.  Gologan succeeds pianist Mengjie Han in the position, who was the third founding member and performed with the trio for the last seven years. 
Born in Romania in 1992, Gologan began playing piano when he was five. Only six months later, he won his first piano competition, and at 14, he made his orchestral debut.  A graduate of Salzburg’s Mozarteum University studying with Pavel Gililov, Gologan’s other mentors included Iulian Arcadi Trofin, Sir András Schiff, Richard Goode, Claudio Martinez-Mehner, Daniel Barenboim, Ferenc Rados, Gidon Kremer, Gabor Takács-Nagy, and Pamela Frank, among others.  He has won prizes at the International Competition for Young Pianists in Memory of Vladimir Horowitz, Concours International Piano Campus, Sigismund Thalberg International Piano Competition, and the Lions European Musical Competition.  An avid chamber musician, his collaborators include Camerata Salzburg, Kiev Philharmonic Orchestra, and artists Gregory Ahss, Shirley Brill, William Coleman, Volker Jacobsen, Lena Neudauer, and Jennifer Stumm at various festivals.
Gologan will join the Amatis Trio in their upcoming season performances in venues such as London’s Wigmore hall, Palau de la Música Barcelona, and Cologne Philharmonie. 
“The piano trio repertoire is one of the most extraordinary out there: the Brahms, the Schumanns, the Beethovens!” wrote Gologan in a Facebook post. 
“I am very much looking forward to exploring it together with Lea and Sam!” he added. “Very exciting times.”

Biography​
Amatis Trio

​Lea Hausmann - violin
Sam Shepherd  - cello
Mengjie Han - piano

The Amatis Trio was founded in Amsterdam in 2014 and is now based in Salzburg, Austria. German violinist Lea Hausmann, British cellist Samuel Shepherd, and Dutch pianist Mengjie Han are celebrated for their energy, insight, creativity, communication and passion. The trio is regarded as one of the leading ensembles of its generation.
The Amatis Trio has performed in 43 countries across 5 continents and has won many major international competitions and awards. They are former BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artists and were selected as ECHO Rising Stars (European Concert Hall Organisation) by Elbphilharmonie Hamburg, Köln Philharmonie, Festspielhaus Baden-Baden and Dortmund Konzerthaus. The trio has been awarded some of the most prestigious music prizes from around the world including the Kersjesprijs of the Netherlands and the Borletti-Buitoni Trust Fellowship award.

In addition to performances in many of the worlds leading festivals including the BBC Proms, Verbier Festival, Switzerland and the Edinburgh International Festival, the trio are regularly invited as soloists in triple concerto repertoire, appearing with orchestras such as the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, BBC Wales and Frankfurt Museums Orchestra. They are currently 'Artists in Residence at Cambridge University and appointees of the Irene R Miller Piano Trio Residency at the University of Toronto, Canada.
The Amatis Trio released their debut CD on AVI Records featuring the music of Enescu, Ravel and Britten. The disc received high praise amongst critics and earned the ensemble inclusion in Gramophone Magazines 'Artists to Watch`.

Their strong commitment to contemporary music led the trio to form the ‘Dutch Piano Trio Composition Prize’, aimed at encouraging young composers to expand the piano trio repertoire. Since it's inception they have commissioned and premiered 15 contemporary pieces, most recently Moorlands, a work by Swedish composer Andrea Tarrodi.

Prize-winning accolades include the 2018 Melbourne International Chamber Music Competition, the 2018 International Joseph Haydn Competition in Vienna, the International Joseph Joachim Competition in Weimar, Germany.

Both Lea and Sam play on very fine Jean-Baptiste Vuillaume instruments kindly loaned by generous patrons through the Beares International Violin Society.
