Not-quite-classical music with flute, oboe/oboe d'amore/English horn & cello; Arrangments of folk songs & beautiful originals by Grammy-nominated composer Tom Reese.
Bio / Background
Azure trio is an exciting trio of flute, oboe and cello. On Acorn, we include pennywhistle, oboe d'amore, & English horn. With a repertoire ranging from classical to traditional American, Irish & other folk music, with original arrangements, this trio delights it's audiences. Located in beautiful south- central Pennsylvania, the trio sometimes travels to neighboring states & college campuses for concerts.
This CD is a pleasant mixture of folk songs & originals by Grammy- nominated composer Tom Reese. The originals were originally created for a story-telling show that we accompanied live. Our story-teller is Marie Wenger, and she is taking her show on the road right now. More Music: With the addition of viola, Azure morphs into a quartet called "Susquehanna" whose CD debuted at #3 on the New Age charts in July '01 (yes, it's available at CD Baby!).
↓ more ↓Tom & Laurie (flute & cello) also perform with The Reese Project (jazz) & Wyndfall (celtic & folk rock) - be sure to check their music out! ALL Cd's are available at CD Baby! Our players are multi-talented, not only playing several instruments, but our oboist, Marti Hess, is also a wonderful artist & did the cover paintings on the front & back of Acorn. She also did the cover painting for Susquehanna's CD, Conversations.
