The Brahms Trio is one of the leading chamber ensembles of Russia, a piano trio that unites violinist Nikolai Sachenko – winner of the Golden Medal of the XI International Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow, cellist Kirill Rodin – winner of the Golden Medal of the VIII International Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow, and pianist Natalia Rubinstein – First Prize winner of the Joseph Joachim Chamber Music Competition in Weimar and founder of the ensemble.
Founded in Moscow in 1988, the Brahms Trio has performed worldwide and has recorded much of Russian piano trio repertoire. The Brahms Trio made a contribution to enlarging the chamber repertoire by rediscovering unknown piano trios of Russian composers of the late-19th and early-20th century.
The musicians of the Brahms Trio are professors of the Moscow Tchaikovsky Conservatory, recipients of the awards ‘For the Prominent Contribution to the Development of Culture’ as well as the title ‘Merited Artist of Russia’.
