Our Debut Album “EnCouleur” wins OPUS KLASSIK

June 25, 2025

We are thrilled to share very special news with you: our debut album “EnCouleur” has been awarded the prestigious OPUS KLASSIK – in the category “Classical Music Without Borders”!

This award means the world to us. As a percussion ensemble, we operate in a niche within classical music. That makes it all the more moving for us to have convinced such a distinguished jury with our project. It’s a powerful sign that percussion instruments deserve their place on the great stages of the classical world.

Our album “EnCouleur” is the result of five years of intensive work. It features arrangements of French works by composers such as Debussy, Ravel, Saint-Saëns, Milhaud, and Tailleferre – all reimagined for so-called mallet instruments: marimbas, vibraphones, and glockenspiels. Our goal was to transfer the rich palette of these compositions into the world of percussion and open up new sonic landscapes.

The album was released in October 2024 on Solo Musica (SM467), and we’re overjoyed by the warm reception it has received – both from the public and now through this special recognition from OPUS KLASSIK.

We want to take this opportunity to say a heartfelt thank you – to all our companions, supporters, friends, and patrons who have accompanied and encouraged us over the years. Without your enthusiasm, trust, and help, this milestone in our career would have been very difficult to reach.

With great joy and heart,
TrioColores
