Since their 2016 debut on LiveConnections in Philadelphia, Bird's Eye Trio (Jennifer Curtis, Ayane Kozasa, and Paul Wiancko) continues to transform the traditional concert experience into a journey of musical storytelling by weaving together bold original compositions, folk music, iconic classical works, and music from roads less traveled. Their performances represent a confluence of three powerfully uncommon artistic voices, hailed as "magnetic" (Philadelphia Inquirer), "innovative" (sequenza21), "full of earthy vitality" {Washington Post}, and "the gutsiest" {New York Times).

Individually, trio members have won top prizes at the Primrose, Lutoslawski, Wigmore, and Osaka International Competitions, received S&R Foundation Awards for both performance and composition, and perform regularly with the acclaimed International Contemporary Ensemble (ICE), American Contemporary Music Ensemble (ACME), East Coast Chamber Orchestra (ECCO) and Aizuri Quartet.
