Biographical Note
For 32 years, from 1968 to 2000, The Macalester Trio consistently presented Piano Trio literature at the highest professional level to the Twin Cities area.
For a majority of its time together as the trio in residence at Macalester College in St. Paul, Minn., the members of the Macalester Trio were Joseph Roche, violin; Camilla Heller, cello; and Donald Betts, piano.
The Macalester Trio specialized in music from the Romantic Era. Composers such as Beethoven, Schumann, Mendelssohn and Brahms were programmed regularly for its concerts. But just as often, the Macalester Trio would program music from the 20th century and even commission brand-new piano trios to premiere at its concerts.
