Trio Amani - Nikolai Amani, Hans Schaeuble, Paul M�ller-Z�rich, Sergei Prokofiev: Musical Rarities - String Chamber Music from Zurich

The trio was founded in 2017 by violinist Marina Yakovleva, her fellow-violinist and brother Mikhail Yakovlev and cellist Lev Sivkov. They chose the name �Trio Amani� in honour of the Russian composer Nikolay Amani (1872-1904), whose string trio they discovered in 2018 and premiered that year in Zurich. After a highly successful concert series, Marina, Mikhail and Lev invited violist Vahagn Aristakesyan to join them on the present recording of chamber music for strings in various scorings from Russia and Switzerland. The trio presented this programme in 2019 in a series of concerts in the composers� homelands.
