Our Bio
The Adagio Trio was founded in 1985 by Kathryn Daniels, Michael Daniels, and Linda Grieser, when the Daniels were studying for their master's degrees at the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music. They performed regularly for concerts, recitals, religious services, weddings, and receptions. In 1990, Michael took the position of principal cellist with the Virginia Symphony, and the Daniels moved to Norfolk, Virginia. Michael continues to perform in the Virginia Symphony, while Kathryn teaches private flute lessons and freelances in the Hampton Roads area.
The Irish song "Down By The Salley Gardens" was composed in 1909 by Herbert Hughes. It is based on a poem by William Butler Yeats published in 1889. We adapted harpist Patricia Jaeger's lovely arrangement and released it in 1997 on our "Stillpoint" CD. We are happy to create a new video for an old favorite of ours for St. Patrick's Day this year!
