About
Russian Roots is the Trio Gaspard’s debut recording for Chandos records, for which they are joined by soprano Katharina Konradi for a diverse and rewarding programme that explores the Russian influence across almost 200 years of music. A selection of Russian folksongs set by Beethoven, Shostakovich’s first Piano Trio, his Seven Romances on poems by Blok and Weinberg’s Jewish Songs form the backbone of the recital. These are interspersed with Vocalises (wordless songs) by Stravinsky, Rachmaninoff, Gubaidulina and Auerbach.

April 2022
Her youthful yet attractively rich-toned voice and beguiling musicianship, with an appropriate touch of skittishness at the start of the Weinberg set, works extremely well through most of these works.
March 2022
The players’ sympathy with a range of styles is well established and Konradi’s idiomatic Russian (first of her many languages) is an obvious asset...Strongly recommended.
