Trio O3 is composed by Eugénie Defraigne, Léna Kollmeier and Lydie Thonnard. The trio came to life thanks to the common interest of the three musicians in today's vibrant music.



After having defined their very own universe, the three musicians presented their first project, « Echos de la Terre » in 2017 at the Espace Senghor in Brussels. In 2018, the Trio O3 was the winner of the Supernova Competition, and a year later they won the prize for best interpretation of a contemporary work as well as a third prize at the Opus 2019 international competition.



The trio has performed in several festivals and concert halls in Belgium, such as Flagey in Brussels and the Palais des Beaux-Arts in Charleroi. They have also been invited to the « Ars Musica » festival in November 2020 and to the « Belgian Music Days » in 2022.



Since 2020, the musicians have been promoting Belgian music (premieres of works by Adrien Tsilogiannis, Sarah Wéry, Jonah Blumenthal, Max Charue, Virginie Tasset and Fabian Fiorini) at home and abroad, notably at the Arvo Pärt Center in Estonia as part of the Nargenfestival. Alongside their various trio projects, they collaborate with other musicians such as mezzo-soprano Frauke Elsen, with whom they offer an all-female contemporary repertoire to be presented this October at the LOOP Festival in Brussels.



In November 2022, the Arsonic hall in Mons (Belgium) welcomed the musicians for the recording of their first album, due for release in March 2024.
