Sixth Station Trio returns to Old First Concerts to immerse audiences in music from the action role-playing game Genshin Impact!

Sixth Station Trio is a professional piano, violin, and cello trio based in the San Francisco Bay Area, whose mission is to keep classical music accessible to the general public and to challenge the boundaries of what a classical piano trio can do. They play an expansive variety of music ranging from Western classical music, film music, and even pop! They debuted at Grace Cathedral in San Francisco in 2023 in a sold-out concert featuring music from the films of Studio Ghibli.
