THE CHAMBER ORCHESTRA KREMLIN
with MISHA RACHLEVSKY, Director
http://www.chamberorchestrakremlin.ru/

 “This is an ensemble of extremely tight discipline and heart-on-the-sleeve expressiveness.  The combination is completely compelling.  The conductor uses his hands most of the time, conducting from memory and thus keeping in constant communication with the players.  The orchestra moves as a single voice through even the fastest of passages.  These are remarkable players playing with marvelous unity… playing with grace, style, and charm.”—Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
