Trio Artio was founded in Vienna in 2017 by Austrian violinist Judith Fliedl, German cellist Christine Roider and Austrian pianist Johanna Estermann and is mentored by Stefan Mendl and Johannes Meissl at the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna. 

In only a short period of time, Trio Artio is a laureate at the “International Chamber Music Competition Massimiliano Antonelli” (Italy) and a strident of “Yehudi Menuhin Live Music Now” scholarship.

In the season 2019/20 Trio Artio was the first “Featured Ensemble” of Jeunesse Austria. The ensemble performed not only in some of Vienna’s most prestigious concert venues but all over Austria in a wide variety of genres, such as a music theatre production and scenic concerts for children. A highlight of the season was a performance of Beethoven’s Triple Concerto in the Mozartsaal of the Konzerthaus Wien.

From 2020 until 2022, Trio Artio will take part in the “New Austrian Sound of Music” (NASOM) support programme, a project established by the Austrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which will see the ensemble representing Austria internationally by performing concerts on stages around the world.
