Sutherland Trio combines the rich experience belonging to three of Melbourne’s most celebrated musicians. Their natural rapport radiates in performance giving the audience a warm, engaging and mature insight to the music. Formed in 2010 in honour of the trailblazing Australian composer, teacher and pioneer Margaret Sutherland,  the trio’s vision is to highlight a female composer in each concert and to combine great works of the Western Art chamber music tradition with significant directions in composition worldwide. International and Australian premieres have included works by Lera Auerbach, Britta Bystrom, Stuart Greenbaum, Christine McCombe, Richard Danielpour, Katy Abbot, Caroline Almonte, Paul Grabowsky, Mary Finsterer and Missy Mazzoli.​ Sutherland Trio has been a regular performer at the 3MBS FM marathons; further highlights have included performances for Musica Viva, Adelaide’s Elder Hall, Port Fairy Festival, Macedon Music, Mornington Peninsula Summer Music Festival, Duneira, Melbourne Digital Concert Hall, Benalla Art Gallery,  and ABC Classic FM.
