Along with Arnold Steinhardt (first violinist of the Guarneri Quartet) and Jules Eskin (principal cellist of the Boston Symphony), she is a member of the Steinhardt-Artymiw-Eskin Trio. Ms. Artymiw is professor of piano and a McKnight Distinguished Professor at the University of Minnesota. Venue: Grazhda, Route 23 A.
