When confronted with the Moscow Art Trio, even hard-boiled critics go off into unrestrained raptures. ... Such breathtaking talent, comtinbed with perfect technique and an understanding between the musicians that might almost be called magical - that just doesnt happen very often. - Das Kulturmagazin
Rarely have the frontiers between epochs, Eastern and Western folkmusic, and jazz and classical music been so gracefully negotiated as by the Moscow Art Trio - International Herald Tribune
The fabulous trio have recorded a new CD 'Instead of making children', which contains unique, new material. For the first time you can hear Misha Alperins and Arkady Shilkloper's vocal qualities. Even though all material is written by Alperin, and not based on the folk songs, the spirit of Old Russia is very much there. All lyrics are written by Sergey Starostin. This record shows the virtuosity and tightness that Moscow Art Trio is known for (comparable only to the brass section of Tower of Power). The Trio combines their virtuosity with silent and meditative stories, which create a poetic atmosphere and give the CD a mystical flavour.
Moscow Art Trio is Mikhail Alperin on piano, Arkady Shilkloper on French horn together with Sergey Starostin on clarinet and folk reeds. Both Shilkloper and Starostin add vocals.
