Blackwood&Silver Trio
Clarinet Trio
About
We are a quirky trio of clarinet players that perform for the sole purpose of playing great music together. We explore all of the beautiful sonorities of the clarinet, often employing the smallest member of the family, the Eb clarinet, and its larger siblings, the Bb and bass clarinet. Whether we are floating through the heavenly sounds of Beethoven, or exploring all the ways clarinets can go honk, sqwak and sqweak, we always have a great time, and invite you to join in the fun!
Music
We have a full program ready to play at your next Groupmuse event:
Swan Hennessey's Trio, op.54 is a delightful mix of the experiences of an Irish American composer from Illinois studying in Paris during the Impressionist movement.
We chose a 6 part suite from Nicholas Van Slyck's Twelve for Three, featuring our favorites from this contemporary classical composer.
We hit notes of latin, classical, and choral flavors as we also explore works by Paquito d'Rivera, Beethoven, and Bach.
