I am Susan Monterio, violinist, violist and founder of Chanot Trio (Chanot - pronounced, shah-nō after the French violin maker Georges Chanot 1801-1883).
We are professional musicians and are passionate about providing exquisite live music performances for dinner parties, weddings, and corporate events. Our trio features the harmonious blend of violin or viola, cello, and flute, ensuring a captivating musical experience tailored to your specific event. I have been running string trios and quartets for many years and I strive to create memorable moments through carefully curated performances. We at Chanot Trio are classically trained which allows us to easily execute any musical genre and we have had the privilege of performing at many different venues from symphonies to wedding ceremonies and dinner parties.
About Chanot Trio
What Our Clients Say
My favorite memory from our wedding was the feeling I had during the walk down the aisle listening to Pachabel's Canon in D. It was an incredibly surreal, empowering, serene moment and Susan's music only added to that emotion. I will never forget walking arm in arm with both my parents, passing by those closest to me, with my dream man waiting to take his hand in mine. The sound of Susan's violin strings is quite possibly the most romantic sound you will ever hear. I had a list of songs I wanted Susan to play and she executed them all masterfully. She also recommended a modern song for our recessional that was completely unique and fun. I had some anxiety (as many brides do about every detail) about the timing of the music, and if it was all going to play out smoothly. Susan was a total professional, taking cues from both the priest and the coordinator and playing everything perfectly. You can tell Susan has a true passion for playing the violin. As a music lover (and bridezilla!) I would recommend Susan to play at any wedding, formal or informal, no matter what your budget or location.
