Fuging Machine
Composer: Emmons, Stephen
Instrumentation: Trio Instruments: Bassoon, Clarinet, Flute, Piano
Genre: ContemporaryFor Flute, Clarinet, Bassoon and Piano, the "Fuging Machine" is about a machine in a factory that spends its life making widgets. After a while on the factory line, it discovers an ability to construct fugues, something its designers never intended. A fugue subject, based in part on the “mechanical music” of the factory, arises in the clarinet. The machine expands this into a full fugue, breaking away from the drudgery of making widgets. By the end of the piece, the machine goes back to making widgets, but its existence is enriched by its newfound ability. Learn MoreAs low as $17.00

Parley for Winds
Composer: Ardovino, Lori
Instrumentation: Trio Instruments: Bassoon, Clarinet, Oboe
Genre: ContemporaryOboe, Clarinet and Bassoon
Parley for Winds for Woodwind Trio is a four movement work, each movement a discussion between the players. Deliberation is slow and careful, each player avoiding conflict, while at times two and sometimes all three players come together in a punctuated thought, as if coming together as a compromise. Colloquy is more of a light discussion where all voice come together amicably, void of any serious disagreement. Quibble is introduced by the clarinet, the motive slightly agitated and seeming to raise objection. The oboe and bassoon quickly chime in with their objection and then everything seems to go awry. Heated Discussion is fast and rhythmic, each voice stating their own opinion trying to outdo the other. The discussion becomes inflamed with conviction by the three and remains so to the spirited end.

Suite for Reeds
Composer: Cobb, Nancy Hill
Instrumentation: Trio Instruments: Bassoon, Clarinet, Oboe
Genre: ContemporaryOboe, Clarinet and Bassoon
Suite for Reeds was commissioned by Trio Canna from the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point (Andrea Splittberger-Rosen, Stacey Berk and Patricia Holland) and premiered by them in 2010. Cobb wrote the work as part of her grieving process within the first year after her husband’s death in 2009. The first movement, “Lamentation Perpetual” reflects the disorientation of grief. The second, “Wistful Waltz,” depicts the sadness that good memories of the dance in a former life can bring. Awkward and humorous attempts to recover and “march ahead” with life are found in “March Gone Awry”. The final movement, “Remedy in Tarantella,” reflects the triumph of renewed energy and the human spirit prevailing. All four movements are cast in familiar structures of unity and variety.

Three Reed Trios
Composer: Simpson, Peter
Instrumentation: Trio Instruments: Bassoon, Clarinet, Flute
Genre: ContemporaryOboe, Clarinet and Bassoon
This collection is intended to expand reed trio repertory into musical periods before such an ensemble existed. This is somewhat consistent with history, because up through the Baroque era, it was common for instruments to substitute for one another or even for voices. The earliest work is a love song (Quam pulcra es) in three vocal parts by John Dunstable, a 15th century English composer. The middle piece (Suite en Trio II) is a suite of dances from a large set of trios written by the 17th century French composer Marin Marais. The final piece (Sinfonia 14) is one of J.S. Bach’s three part inventions for keyboard.

Two Girls and a Boy
Composer: Zaheri, Amir
Instrumentation: Trio Instruments: Bassoon, Clarinet, Oboe
Genre: ContemporaryOboe, Clarinet and Bassoon
Scott Hannah writes, “Amir Zaheri (b. 4 March 1979) composed Two Girls and a Boy for the Cavell Trio, and dedicates the score to the ensemble – ‘for the Cavell Trio, with greatest admiration and appreciation.’ Zaheri describes Two Girls and a Boy as a musical conversation, for which he first wrote a story, then created a musical setting. He likens the piece to the film work of Woody Allen, which frequently features overlapping conversations, with characters finishing one another’s sentences.”

Woodland Dawn
Composer: Friedland, Zach
Instrumentation: Trio Instruments: Bassoon, Clarinet, Flute
Genre: ContemporaryWritten for Flute, Clarinet, and Bassoon, Woodland Dawn draws inspiration from Beethoven's Symphony No. 6 "The Pastoral". The piece starts slowly with an upward moving "sunrise theme" that is passed around between the three different instruments before evolving into a faster section inspired by the famous oboe line from Beethoven's work. The music is meant to evoke a peaceful backdrop as nature awakens around you on a hike through the woods at dawn.
