On Wednesday (Mar 20, 2013) Wayne Byers Show, on CSi Cable 2, Rick Walentine said, Sonic Escape is a trio of Juilliard graduates Maria Kaneko Millar (violin), Shawn Wyckoff (flute) and Michael Haas (cello) performing original works, arrangements and improvisations. Two members of the trio performed at the Jamestown Arts Center a few years ago.

From New York City, the virtuoso members of Sonic Escape are equally at home performing in classical music’s greatest halls – The Kennedy Center, Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center – or traveling across the country in roles as diverse as fiddle-dancing in “Riverdance,” jamming with Beale Street blues bands, improvising with Native-American flute masters and playing rock clubs.

Sonic Escape is the recipient of two Canada Council for the Arts Composition Grants, a Puffin Foundation Award and a Chamber Music America Residency Grant.

The summer of 2012 marked the release of their debut album as well as the trio’s introduction to the folk festival circuit.
