The Portland Piano Trio plan to perform a concert of pieces by Women composers at 3 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 3, at the Nordica Auditorium on the campus of the University of Maine at Farmington, 224 Main St. in Farmington.

The program includes The Scarlatti Effect for Violin, Cello and Piano by Elena Ruehr, Piano Trio in G Minor by Clara Schumann, and Color Through: Brilliant Blue by Jennifer Higdon. Ruehr and Higdon are both acclaimed American composers. Clara (Wieck) Schumann, perhaps less well known than her husband Robert Schumann, was a talented composer and one of the most brilliant pianists of her time.

The trio consists of Anastasia Antonacos, piano, Tracey Jasas-Hardel, violin, and Jing Li, cello.

Since its criticall -acclaimed debut in 2016, the Portland Piano Trio’s “enlivening tautness and precision,” “impressive ensemble and shared musical values” have entertained and inspired audiences throughout New England. The group has appeared on numerous chamber music series, including Electric Earth Concerts, Portsmouth Atheneum, Fox Islands Concerts, Bay Chamber, and Machias Bay Chamber Music Festival.

The trio is serving as the founding musicians-in-residence of 240 Strings, a Portland-based nonprofit supported by the National Endowment for the Arts dedicated to providing private music lessons to economically-challenged children in Portland and providing affordable community concerts. The trio has twice attended Avaloch Music Institute in Boscawen, New Hampshire, for a week of intense rehearsing and sharing with other nationally recognized chamber groups, and has served in residence at New England Music Camp.
