Trio Voronezh is made up of three Russian musicians who play bayan (accordion), domra (similar to a mandolin), and double bass balalaika. The trio has been a hit at the Oregon Bach Festival and over NPR; this is its debut disc. It's obviously aimed at the crossover market, with light fare including a Vivaldi movement and a Gershwin medley. But this ensemble's musicianship and originality qualify them for a more serious audience, too. Their Piazzolla is as tangy as anybody's, and the way they toss off Schnittke's parodistic Gogol Suite could crack up a musicologist. Turning Schubert's best-known Moment musical into a folk dance may not convince everyone, but they do the same with a Tchaikovsky Russian dance that's extremely persuasive. Too bad Angel hasn't identified the music on the disc properly, or given us more than 42 minutes of music on one CD. But what is here is so much fun that Trio Voronezh deserves a wide recommendation, especially to classical-music lovers who are relaxed enough to enjoy Quartetto Gelato or the Cambridge Buskers. --Leslie Gerber
