PSO Executive Director Marc Uys is enthusiastic about the new series at Trinity. He says, "Thanks to ideal acoustics and an intimate setting, performances at Trinity Church have become favorite fixtures on our Princeton Festival calendar. I am thrilled to now extend our treasured partnership with Trinity throughout our season with a new series specially curated for this beautiful space.”
The remaining three concerts on the series take place after the new year as follows:
Valencia Baryton Project
Thursday, February 27, 2025 – 7pm
The baryton is a cross between the viol da gamba and lirone, with 10 resonating and plucked strings down the back of the instrument.

Black Oak Ensemble
Thursday, March 20, 2025 – 7pm
The Black Oak Ensemble is one of the most innovative and exciting chamber ensembles on the international stage. “The players fully inhabit the spirit of whatever work they are playing at the moment, performing each one with as ardent a flame as if they had written it themselves” (Fanfare Magazine). Members include Desirée Ruhstrat, violin, David Cunliffe, cello, and Aurélien Fort Pederzoli, viola.
Signum Quartet
Thursday, May 1, 2025 – 7pm
Performances of unsparing expressivity, intimacy and vitality are hallmarks of the Signum Quartet, pairing music making of the subtlest order with playing of the highest intensity.
