TRIO DIAGHILEV's original musical proposal surprises us, so that an apparently “simple” concert becomes a real and complete performance... never before have there been such daring effects with even more stunning touches than those in the orchestral versions…“…The Trio was able to create striking symphonic sounds and the dynamism of the two piano e the percussion instruments was impressive...
This is what the Munich "Suddeutsche Zeitung" wrote about Trio Diaghilev.
It's true to say that the stunning instrumental technique of each single player, the refined taste, the respectful open-mindedness close to the artistic creation pleasure and the great emotional tension, ensure that the Trio Diaghilev's performances make for an astonishing and exciting evening. The well-constructed arrangements by the Trio with their daringly inquisitive and irrepressible musicality, make for a sparkling and culturally regenerative evening.
The Trio Diaghilev's repertory includes some of the greatest 20th century musical masterpieces like some original compositions written especially for them.
The intensive activity of the Trio in Italy and abroad has gained enthusiastic approval both from the public and from the critics.
