On this CD, the distinguished US-based Poulenc Trio, a group which features piano, oboe and bassoon, perform a fascinating selection of works for this unusual combination by Francis Poulenc himself, Charles Triébert & Eugène Jancourt, Glinka, and André Previn.

The Poulenc Trio is one of the most active touring piano-wind chamber music ensembles in the world. Since its founding in 2003, the Trio has performed in more than 30 US states and at music festivals around the world, including the Ravello Festival in Italy, the San Miguel de Allende Festival in Mexico, and the White Nights Festival in Russia, where the group toured with, and premiered two new works with, violinist Hilary Hahn.

The Trio has a strong commitment to commissioning, performing and recording new works from living composers. Since its inception they have greatly expanded the repertoire available for the oboe, bassoon and piano, with 20 new works written for and premiered by them, including two triple concertos for Trio and full orchestra.

- Irina Kaplan (piano)
