OLEG MARKOV TRIO

Oleg started to compose his first compositions during his studies at the Institute of Music Glier.

He was inspired by listening to a lot of classical music in his childhood, as well as in the Institute. While he was studying accordion he learned to love classical music as well as jazz. Some of his favorite composers include: Rachmaninov, Chopin, Schubert, Beethoven and Mozart.

At the same time Oleg was listening to: Keith Jarrett, Jan Garbarek, John Surman, Ralph Towner, Mick Goodrick, John Abercrombie, Dave Holland, Kenny Wheeler, John Taylor, Paul Motion, Charlie Haden, etc...

Olegs love of piano trio music led him to start one of his own. The biggest inspiration was seeing the bassist and composer Avishai Cohen in concert. 

After that Concert, Oleg continued to compose even more & more of his original music. The biggest amount of tunes was written during his studies at the KUG University in Graz, Austria.

Oleg has only the finest musicians performing in his trio. This helps to get the freshest and unique sound for all of his music.

OLEG MARKOV QUINTET

The idea of creating this group came to Oleg right before his last year of Bachelor studies.

He wanted to highlight everything he's learned during his studies in Graz by featuring all the great jazz drummers in history. As a drummer and composer himself, Oleg adores the music of other drummers & percussionists. He has spent learning and transcribing from these great players and their music. Compositions of a legendary drummers like: Max Roach, Elvin Jones, Tony Williams, Victor Lewis, Al Foster, Joe Chambers, Jeff "Tain" Watts, Jack Dejohnette, etc. This Band is full of energy and very creative musicians. They will bring the classic jazz sound to any of your venues!
