His TV appearance on iCarly might be the most recognizable Greg Pattillo has ever made, but he and his trio mates - Eric Stephenson and Peter Seymour - have played for millions of people around the world. Based in Brooklyn, PROJECT Trio performs a new breed of high-energy music packed with hip-hop, jazz, rock and beat-boxing. All three members of the trio were once part of the Canton Symphony Orchestra.
No one would ever expect a flute, cello and bass to be in the same sentence as hip-hop or beat-boxing, but don't tell that to over 75 million fans who have viewed their viral video sensations on YouTube or attended one of their concerts. (PROJECT Trio YouTube Channel: www.youtube.com/channel/HCLIRr5aA-DzI)"They are bringing a whole new look to classical music," stated Michelle Mullaly, Executive Director of the Canton Symphony Orchestra. "While classical melodies have pervaded rock, jazz, and popular music for decades, PROJECT Trio is performing the actual classical piece, divinely infused with jazz, rock and hip-hop."Photo Credit: Philip Sharp
