Trio di Canto is a Boston-based trio comprised of a flute, violin and guitar with a focus on current popular tunes, spiced with classical and jazz.  The musicians, Liz Horwitz on flute/double bass, Laurie Peckins on violin and Jeremy Quick on guitar have been performing locally, both as this group and as part of other groups for several years. They will appear on Sunday, November 3, 2013, at 3:00 p.m. at the historic Loring-Greenough House, 12 South Street, Jamaica Plain in the 14th season of the Sunday Afternoon at the ‘Greenough House Parlor Concert Series.

Meet the musicians at afternoon tea following the program.   

The Sunday Afternoon at the ‘Greenough House series recreates the atmosphere of 18th and 19th century “musical afternoons” in the 1760 Loring-Greenough House, twice monthly, October to May.

Liz also plays the double bass in both classical and jazz groups.
