International String Trio (Cypress) String quartets have a defined nature that produces an expected sound. Take away a member, make one of the strings different and a total difference is created as “Movie Night” shows. The International String Trio is a violin, bass and guitar, and can produce music that swings in a gypsy-jazz nature as it does on “Minor Swing” from “Chocolat” or play the classical sounding adagio of the theme from “Schindler‘s List.” The album, as the title would hint, is a collection of 12 tunes from movies. Some are expected, melodious favorites such as “Laura” from that film and “Lara‘s Theme” from “Doctor Zhivago.” Others are less expected such as “The Second Waltz” from “Eyes Wide Shut” or “I‘m Shipping Up to Boston” from “The Departed.” All are done well and appropriately, with the guitar of Slava Tolstoy being the deciding factor in creating an musical identity. The album closes like a well-planned concert, with one of its best offerings, “Ashokan Farewell” from Ken Burns‘ “The Civil War.” — Bob Karlovits  12/15/12 >> go there
