History
The Zagreb Guitar Trio was formed in 1984. The members have not changed since, and include: Darko Petrinjak, István Römer and Goran Listeš. The Trio has performed all over the country and Europe. They have recorded several albums as well as in regular broadcasts for Croatian Radio Television. The ensemble's broad repertoire encompasses works spanning from renaissance to contemporary music, including pieces originally written for three guitars in the 19th century, attractive transcripts and new works written for the Trio by numerous Croatian and foreign artists. Especially notable is their collaboration with British composer John William Duarte, who wrote three compositions for the Trio, including the Little Suite No. 4, which he wrote for their first concert in May 1984 held in the Croatian Music Institute. Later on, the Trio recorded a CD with Duarte's music. They also had a successful collaboration with Russian guitarist and composer Nikita Arnoldovich Koshinko, who has also written some pieces for the Trio. One of the peculiarities of the Trio is that they use the double bass (played by Darko Petrinjak) in their performances. The Zagreb Guitar Trio has won several national awards.
