Soleri Trio

Asen Tanchev (Piano, Bulgaria/Germany) 

Dainis Medjaniks (Violin, Latvia/Germany) 

Moritz Weigert (Violoncello, Germany)

The name stands as an anagram of the cities where the three musicians grew up - Sofia, Leipzig, Riga.

Since 2020, the trio has been studying with Dirk Mommertz (Fauré Quartet), Eberhard Feltz and Priya Mitchell at the HMTM Munich, after finishing their studies with Oliver Wille (Kuss Quartet) and Markus Becker at the HMTM Hanover. Further musical impulses from Günther Pichler (Alban Berg Quartet), Raphaël Merlin (Ébène Quartet), Jacques Ammon, Silke Avenhaus, Peter Buck (Melos Quartet), Stefan Heinemeyer (Atos Trio), Kristin von der Goltz and Wen-Sinn Yang have been supporting their development.

In 2022 the Soleri Trio won the 3rd Prize at the International Chamber Music Competition „Franz Schubert and Modern Music“ in Graz, Austria. The same year they received the 3rd Prize (no First Prizeawarded) at the Ysaye International Music Competition in Liége, Belgium. In 2021 the trio won the Highly Commended Prize at the Parkhouse Award, Wigmore Hall, London, as well as the 2nd Prize at the Società Umanitaria Music Competition in Milan. At the 64th International Jeunesses Musicales Chamber Music Campus in Weikersheim, they were awarded the special prize as one of the most promising young ensembles of 2019.
