"A famous clarinet and saxophone player from Moscow, Valery Kisejyov is one of the most interesting and energetic representatives of the jazz tradition in Russian music. Despite any changes in the line-up of musicians, you will recognize the signature sound of both the Ensemble and Valery Kiselyov himself as soon as the music starts playing. While preparing programs dedicated to his icons Benny Goodman or Duke Ellington, Valery does not attempt to simulate their performance. Instead, he delicately preserves the spirit of their masterpieces, making one more declaration of love to these giants of world jazz." ---Michael Green, kiselyovjazz.ru
