The Reverón Piano Trio will bring under-represented Latin American music to the forefront during their performance at St. Bonaventure University’s Quick Center for the Arts at 7:30 p.m. Friday, March 14.

This is the seventh presentation in the 2024-2025 performance season at the Quick Center.

The trio — Ana María Otamendi, piano; Horatio Contreras, cello; and Simón Gollo, violin — are Venezuelan artists who have made their home in the United States, teaching at the University of Michigan and the University of North Texas. Their main goal is to introduce audiences to under-represented music from Latin America alongside contemporary and standard repertoire. 

These seasoned artists are active promoters of Latin American music through their work as scholars and entrepreneurs, and they have devoted their careers to the discovery, cataloguing, performance, and recording of this rich repertoire. In addition, the trio continues to commission new works, and is in the process of creating the Sphinx Catalog of Latin American Piano Trios.

Recent engagements include concerts at the Festival Casals in Puerto Rico, Music Institute of Chicago, Aruba Symphony Festival, Beethoven Festival Park City, Festival A la Vela de la Alhambra in Granada, and Universidad de los Andes in Bogotá, Colombia. Additionally, the trio has been in residence at the University of Michigan, Michigan State University, University of Wisconsin, Dickinson College, Lawrence University, Louisiana State University, the Westfield Center for Historical Keyboard Studies, the Collaborative Piano Institute, and various other universities in the United States and abroad.

The performance is presented in association with Friends of Good Music. The Quick Center galleries will open one hour before the performance and remain open through the intermission.

Tickets are $20 for adults, $18 for senior citizens and SBU employees, and $5 for students. Tickets can be purchased online or by calling the Quick Center at (716) 375-2494.
