notes

The Adagio Trio was founded in 1985 in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Kathryn Daniels, Michael Daniels, and Linda Grieser, the founding members, have performed regularly for recitals, religious services, weddings, and receptions. In 1990 Michael took the position of Co-Principal Cellist with the Virginia Symphony, and the Daniels moved to Norfolk, Virginia. The trio continued to work together, however, and released their first CD "Stillpoint" in 1997. In October 1999, the trio released their second CD "Sanctuary".

The unique combination of harp, flute, and cello provides a fitting compliment for meditation or relaxation.
The trio, for the most part, creates their own arrangements and uses familiar tunes such as "Ashokan Farewell",
"Shenandoah", "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring", and "On Eagle's Wings". The group has been featured on public radio stations throughout the country including ones in Minnesota, Virginia, Missouri, New York, Ohio, Oregon, and California.
Their music has been featured numerous times on WHRO radio in Hampton Roads and WGUC-FM in Cincinnati. In the first six weeks, the "Stillpoint" album sold over 1000 copies. Their albums have evoked many positive responses from people across the country.

  • Very beautiful, transcendtal music. Very healing.
    author: Nan Williamson

    I was first introduced to this CD by the Hospice unit who were helping me take care of my dying mother. They had several CD's for us to borrow, but this was the one which spoke to both of us. The night she died she became very disturbed in her unconsciousness and I decided to play Stillpoint for her. Very soon, she calmed down and I played it for her continually until she died. I bought my own copy and listen to it now: it brings me peace.

  • Beautiful, lovely, relaxing, and inspiring. Makes a good gift.

    Very lovely CD. A great choice of music including both familiar and unfamiliar pieces with beautiful arrangements. The instruments harmonize so well. We will be giving it as gifts to family and friends for the holidays!
