Reed trio

A reed trio, also known as a trio d’anches, is a mixed chamber ensemble consisting of three reed instruments: oboe, clarinet and bassoon. Either term can also refer to a musical composition for this ensemble.

History

edit

The origins of the reed trio are more recent than the wind quintet: while the latter arose early in the nineteenth century, the first known composition for reed trio, a work by French composer Ange Flégier, was not written until 1897.[1] The reed trio ranks second only to the wind quintet among woodwind chamber ensembles in terms of popularity and quantity of original repertoire.[2] The reed trio genre became more firmly established in the late 1920s by bassoonist Fernand Oubradous, oboist Myrtile Morel and clarinetist Pierre Lefèbvre, who together comprised the Trio d’Anches de Paris.[3][4] Much of the original repertoire for the reed trio was written for Oubradous’ ensemble as well as the contemporaneous Trio d’Anches René Daraux (René Daraux, oboe; Fernand Gossens, clarinet; Ange Maugendre, bassoon). Professional reed trios that have produced commercial recordings include the Saarland Radio Wind Trio, Ensemble Trielen, Trio Lézard, the Cavell Trio, Trio d’Anches de Cologne, Trio d’Anches Hamburg, Trois Bois, Trio d'Anches de Monte-Carlo, Zagreb Wind Trio and Ocotillo Winds.

Oiseau-Lyre Wind Trios

edit

Several French composers are responsible for contributing some of the first works for reed trio and have written standards that are part of the Oiseau-Lyre Wind Trio Collection. This collection consists of seven compositions by Darius Milhaud, Jacques Ibert, Georges Auric, and Henry Barraud. These works came as a response to the formation of the well-received Trio d’anches de Paris in the 1930s.[5] Louise Hanson-Dyer collaborated with the Trio d'anches de Paris to publish and record the music with her company Éditions de l’Oiseau-Lyre.
