I've never heard this piece before, but this is fantastic. I am a clarinet student, looking for new things. I have been having trouble finding more contemporary works for small woodwind ensembles, and this is exactly what I hoped existed. Any other suggestions?

Well, for a couple of other reed trios, check out our other videos. The Tansman trio is quite good, as well. For the same instrumentation, there are also trios by Jean Francaix, Jacques Ibert, and Bill Douglas that I can recommend.

Thanks! I hoped our our performance would serve as a resource for people learning the piece, but I never thought that "people" would include any principals of major orchestras. Have fun next week!

Thanks, Mr. Pizzi! I'm a fan of your work, and this means alot, coming from you.

Excellent! This music is very difficult to play, especially on rhythm, but you mastered very well the difficulties.
