The  RUBINSTEIN TRIO  was formed in Lodz, Poland, in honour of the world famous pianist Arthur Rubinstein, a native of Lodz.

 

Since its founding, the Trio has had great success with the public and the international press. This is made possible by the high qualifications of the individual members.

 

The pianist Anna Wesolowska (studies in Vienna and Lodz), the violinist Adam Kostecki and the cellist Stanislaw Firlej (studies in Moscow with David Oistrach and Mstislav Rostropovich respectively) have individually concertized in America and most of Western Europe to rave reviews and also made several records.

 

Stanislaw Firlej, Anna Wesolowska and  Adam Kostecki are professors at the Music Conservatory in Lodz or Hannover  (Germany).

 

The RUBINSTEIN TRIO has concertized in Germany, Holland, France, Belgium, Spain, and Scandinavia.  The complete trios of Schubert and Chopin have been recorded for the French firm "Le Chant du Monde".

 

Important music festivals such as  Warsaw Fall, Holland Festival and La Chaise Dieu Festival (France) have engaged the RUBINSTEIN TRIO.

 


 

PRESS:

"Brilliant and delightful"
"A consumate interpretation of the two pianotrios of Schubert was performed by the Polish trio (...) who illustrated the very different characters of the works through richness of life and contrast. (...) The first movement of the B flat trio was immediately convincing through the precision and finely worked out technical and musical subleties. (...) In last movement the musicians' joy of playing with all its brilliance came through, which showed itself by the perfect ensemble playing of the ideally matched interpreters."
                                                                                                  
Hannoversche Allgemeine Zeitung, Hannover, September 1993

"Rubinstein Trio inspired"
"The three authorities made music in such an ideal harmonization that their combined strengths and abilities made every motive, theme and every movement a complete and overpowering impact. (...) What should one be more impressed by: Schubert's indescribable originality of construction; his unending wealth of ideas; his ability to bring the characteristic of each individual instrument to full enjoyment - or the passionate dedication of three Polish masters with their performance and ensemble in new creation of a magnificent work?"
                                                                                                    Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger,  Cologne November 1993

"Marvelous!"
"Such music making and ensemble playing is rarely found (...) Rubinstein Trio sure to make a splash in the chamber-music world. .                                                        Zycie Warszawy, Warsaw,September 1994

"L´accord parfait"
Dans un cadre idéal, le Trio Rubinstein a donné un récital parfait de maîtrise et d´harmonie. Troi talents, au service d´une grande musique..                                                         Midi , Carcassonne, June 1997

Rubinstein Trio "A Musical Treat"
At the start already these musicians had proved themselves to be masters of their instruments. With a fascinating security, they mastered even the quickest passages so that it was a delight for the audience to listen. And they did so bewitched...on stage these 3 capable musicians played... and the audience could identify even the smallest details of the works performed. 
                                              Hamburger  Abendblatt, Norderstedt April 2000


"Highest Perfection, Brilliant Chamber Music Evening with the Rubinstein Trio "                                                these musicians from Lodz who have inspired in many international apperances did again this time with a glowing strength of expression, balance and extreme precision. The musicians played with each other, in the true sense of the meaning. They played with the various motives, varied and imitated them. The enthusiasm of the public demanded two  further encores. And rightly so.                          Süddeutsche Zeitung, Eching März 2002
