Review:
'The trio Trigon, promoted and produced by Mikhail Alperin, amazed the audience with music that was witty, effective and precisely arranged in every detail, played solely on percussion instruments, electric bass and viola. When Oleg Baltaga's wooden xylophone mallets joined a race with the bow of the violist Anatoly Stefanet, and Serguei Testimatsanu's tri-tonal, ostinato bass conjured up whimsical dangers to accompany them, it was like being transported into the scenery of old children's films.' (Die Welt - Kultur, Hamburg)
Description:
'It was just great. If you want to speak about the music they played, you have to be as good as them as unusual as they were. And I think it is useless to try to match them in originality - it would be rather difficult. It would be better to make the effort to try to understand and to evaluate the astonishing depth of what they are doing. I think that those who got impressed exicted just by the charm of their arrangements, are profoundly wrong, they are wonderful, profound, real musicians, performing real, profound music. Their style is a very dangerous one. Lots of groups are hiding under a fake originality of sheer non professionalism. It is not their case, every one of them is a brilliant professional, a virtuoso. Beside this, they offered us warm, astonishing and vivid world in which we felt extremely good. (Anatol Kroll, maestro of Russian jazz Moscow, Febr 7th, 1998)
