These include: Carnegie Hall New York, Kennedy Center Washington DC, Musikverein and Konzerthaus Vienna, Kölner Philharmonie, Berliner Philharmonie, Concertgebouw Amsterdam and many others. The Morgenstern Trio has been acclaimed by audiences and the press for the highest standards of chamber music and technique.
