Trio Histoire brings together three outstanding Australian musicians—Nick Russoniello (saxophone), Murilo Tanouye (guitar), and Julia Russoniello (violin)—in a unique ensemble inspired by the golden age of radio.

With their distinctive blend of saxophone, guitar, and violin, the Trio Histoire recalls the eclectic charm of 1940s and '50s radio ensembles that brought classical and popular music into Australian homes. Their performances summon vivid soundscapes—from exotic landscapes to bustling cities—using techniques like Spanish tremolo, birdsong, and the rhythms of Brazilian choro.

Their program features a dynamic mix of repertoire, from Rudy Wiedoeft’s radio-era favorite Sax-o-phun to evocative Australian compositions by Nick Russoniello, Ross Edwards, and Elena Kats-Chernin.
