About
Arensky is a unique figure in late Russian romantic music. In his chamber music, he alternates between Russian emotion and a more objective Western approach. This makes him an important mediator at the turn of the century. The Rachmaninov Trio was formed in 1995 by pianist Vitor Yampolsky, violinist Mikhail Tsinman and cellist Natalia Savinova, who trained together at the Moscow Conservatory.

In texture and colour, both trios are rich, full-bodied and red-blooded...In that respect, the Rachmaninov Trio Moscow, who clearly have this music in their blood, positively excel. Their rhythmic ensemble in fast tempos is spot-on...they understand how to avoid turning a wistful, nostalgic mood into something mournful or even lugubrious.

These Russian performers are keenly aware of the music's Russian but non-nationalist character. Their performing style is Russian to the extent that the music plays out in broad, bold strokes. On the other hand, there is always a classical sense of restraint here too, which gives impressive clarity to Arensky's formal plans
