The combination of the oboe, clarinet and bassoon results in an ensemble that is abundant in contrast of tone color. The literature for this instrumentation is a very demanding category of woodwind chamber music due to the potential virtuosity of the instruments involved. Unfortunately, little research has been done on this topic, and the genre is not well-known. The reed trio ensemble became popular in the early twentieth century, partially due to the formation of the Trio d'anches de Paris (Paris Reed Trio). The group was formed by bassoonist Fernand Oubradous in 1927, and included oboist Myrtil Morel and clarinetist Pierre Lefebvre. Several composers dedicated their reed trios to the famous bassoonist and his reed trio. Another reason for the popularity of the reed trio as a genre was because of the interest of Louise B.M. Dyer-Hanson, founder of the publishing company Editions de l'Oiseau-Lyre. She enjoyed the sound of the reed trio, and commissioned several composers to write for the medium during the 1930s. In 1971 James Gillespie published The Reed Trio: An Annotated Bibliography of Original Published Works, a compilation of reed trios composed between 1897 and 1968. He provided annotations for each piece, and included a brief history of the reed trio genre with information about influential trio ensembles such as the Trio d'anches de Paris and the Rene Daraux Trio d'Anches. This document builds on Gillespie's list, including reed trio compositions published since 1968. Also included are analyses of three contrasting reed trios, two of which are widely considered to be standard repertoire for the medium while the third is a relatively recent composition. Jacques Ibert's Cinq Pieces en Trio (1935) and Jean Francaix's Divertissement (1947) were both early works for the medium that are stylistically contrasting. Martin Schreiner's Anatomy and Variations of the Sirens' Song (1997) represents a contemporary composition that is reflective of modern compositional trends. The analyses are accompanied by performance considerations, a brief biography of each composer, a discography of the piece under discussion, and lists of additional chamber music compositions by each composer. The document also discusses the need for further studies on this extraordinary genre.","abstract_html":"From the woodwind quintet comes a smaller chamber group known as the reed trio.
