Christmas and New Year days is a special time for a glass music. Sparkling snow, sitting by candlelight, waiting for miracles... all filled with the magic. Concerts of Trio was a pleasant addition to the festive atmosphere. As before, we worked with the best philharmonic halls of the Russia, and some - such as the world-known Ekaterinburg Philharmonic Hall - have invited us for a second time. 

Ekaterinburg Philharmonic Hall is one of the oldest concert halls of Russia. Last year, it was recognized as the best cultural institution in Russia. 

Recognition of excellence of Crystal Trio from such famous institutions suggests that we managed to bring the art of glass music at a really high level. 

Another such "step up the ladder of perfection" was a concert in the city of Naberezhnye Chelny, which took place as last year, with the participation of a Chamber orchestra by Igor Lerman. We have a special issue - a concert Fa-minor by J.S. Bach for harpsichord and orchestra, arranged for glass instruments. In this performance, he sounded the first time in the history of music. 

December, 28 the Trio will perform in the Yelabuga State Historical Architectural And Art Museum. This is a unique place, a part of the historical development of Yelabuga, for many years are kept in unaltered form. This area is full of history: here are the Shishkin family nest, Durova Museum (legendary Russian woman-military officer), M.I. Tsvetaeva, in which the poet spent his last years, and many other historical and architectural monuments. At the first part of concert, we performed a concert by J.S. Bach, at the second - a popular classics. More information about the concert is on the official website of the Museum. 

A little earlier, on December 12, we participated in the IIIth International festival "December evenings on the Yenisei". Despite sorokogradusny frost, the concert hall was full, and the response from the audience - the most that neither is hot. About our performance at the festival can be found here.
