The KLR Trio plays together and breathes together

Klr1


The New York Sun's Fred Kirshnit reviewed The Kalichstein-Laredo-Robinson Trio's recent return to the 92nd Street Y - 30 years to the day after they first played there:



"KLR is the tightest imaginable unit, so aware of one another's moves — Mr.
Laredo and Ms. Robinson are husband and wife — that the players actually breathe
together. Intelligence and inspired listening characterize their presentations.
Witness, for example, the musicians' elimination of any significant pause
between movements two and three of the B Major Trio, emphasizing the sound of
one continuous movement quenching the most basic of human emotional yearnings in
the uniquely expressive language of tonality. Ms. Robinson's third movement
solos were incredibly beautiful and emblematic of a wonderful evening of music
making."
