The Art of Harmonizing Music & Food

Aerie Trio combines the rich, beautiful sounds of flute, cello and piano, played by three accomplished, classical musicians. Diane Berry on flute; Maria Wang on cello; and Kathryn LeGros on piano, bringing their love of chamber music to life with works ranging from the 18th century through to the 21st. In their performance at HOB Fine Foods, they will be premiering a set of pieces, written by Diane Berry specifically for this occasion. These pieces and the menu created by Chef Castro Boateng, are inspired by the many wonderful places on Vancouver Island, the beaches, the rainforest, the Garry Oak meadows and other of the island’s hidden gems.
