Trio Orlando: Trio Orlando

One of the most distinguished Croatian chamber ensembles, Trio Orlando, held their first concert in 1985 at the Dubrovnik Summer Festival. In the beginning the trio was composed of Vladimir Krpan, piano, Tonko Ninić, violin and Ksenija Janković, cello, who was later replaced by a Slovenian cellist Andrej Petrač. The ensemble’s name is the same as the award traditionally given in Dubrovnik to most successful artists, and which is named after the famous statue of the knight Orlando given to Dubrovnik by the Hungarian–Croatian king Sigismund in the 15th century.
