Classical chamber music, rock and roll, and hip-hop might seem as separate as oil and water, but for Project Trio, these are the ingredients to an ever-evolving, high-energy setlist that keeps their audiences perpetually on the edge of their seats.

On Saturday, November 9, innovative chamber group Project Trio will bring their genre-bending music to Ravinia’s Bennett Gordon Hall—but their first Ravinia performances have been sharing their passion for improvisation and composition with hundreds of students across Chicagoland. This past week, the trio conducted three workshops and two in-school performances in collaboration with Ravinia’s Reach Teach Play education programs, showing students that improvisation and classical music can go hand-in-hand.
