POULENC TRIO FOR OBOE, BASSOON, AND PIANO

Witty, elegant, and unmistakably French, the Trio for Oboe, Bassoon and Piano is one of the true cornerstones of 20th-century chamber music.

Composed by Francis Poulenc (1899–1963), this trio captures his signature blend of charm, lyricism, and playful irreverence, moving effortlessly between sparkling rhythmic energy and moments of unexpected tenderness. The oboe, bassoon, and piano are treated as equal conversational partners, resulting in music that is as engaging to perform as it is to hear.

A staple of the chamber repertoire, this work is an absolute delight for performers and audiences alike - a perfect addition to any concert or recital program where character, colour, and French elegance are welcome.
