★★★★SCOTSMAN 4 STARS REVIEW

Musicians Hugues Vincent, Ryohei Kanemitsu and Chang Chin Lo – known collectively as the Wooonta Trio – are a real find. The show's title, Sounds Of Taiwan, is based more on the fact that's where the three men met, rather than the work they play . Vincent hails from France, Kanemitsu from Japan and Chin Lo from Taiwan, each bringing a flavor of their homeland to the table. That said, their repertoire extends even further, with flavors of Eastern Europe also in the mix. Personal and friendly, the three men introduce each work before proving themselves true masters of their chosen instruments of sitar (Kanemitsu, who trained in India), cello (Vincent, a real driving force) and the Chinese erhu (Chin Lo, who produces more depth of emotion than seems possible from a two-stringed fiddle). A truly sumptuous hour of sound.
