Amethyst Trio
String Trio in San Francisco, California
Why hire Amethyst Trio?
Award-winning San Francisco trio, consisting of an exquisitely beautiful mix of harp, violin & cello. Amethyst is also a piano trio that is equally at home with classical, pop/rock & jazz. Having played for film scores, MTV videos, touring artists live and in recording studios, Amethyst is probably the most versatile professional trio in the Bay Area.
The Amethyst Trio was an amazing group to work with! We hired the pianist and violinist for our August wedding in Sonoma to play for one hour during the ceremony. They were both wonderful to work with from the beginning - very prompt, answered all of our questions and worked closely with us on all of the specific songs that we wanted during the ceremony. They were timely and very nice to work with and to have at our wedding - the music was so beautiful and we couldn't have asked for better musicians on our special day. I'd highly recommend working with the Amethyst Trio for your wedding or special event! Beautiful music!

Our musicians have degrees from the Manhattan School of Music, UC Berkeley and the SF Conservatory of Music. We perform with Symphony Silicon Valley (San Jose Symphony), the Santa Cruz Symphony, SF Sinfonietta, the Marin Symphony and the Berkeley Symphony and Opera. Our members have played in such venues as Carnegie Hall, Davies Hall, the San Francisco Opera and from time-to-time go on tour to different parts of the country and Europe.
Our pianist/harpist lived in Paris, France for several years, where she developed her musical style and our cellist played in the Mexico City Symphony for many years. Our guitarist recently returned from a 10-concert tour with cellist Yo Yo Ma.
We play many special requests and provide suggestions to brides about musical selections, helping them throughout the process. We also provide amplification when needed.
