This ensemble of local musicians features music of the Baroque, tango, and opera,
played on the oboe, clarinet, and bassoon. Experience the Calamellus Trio in an
intimate chamber concert that brings rich, layered sound to our island community.
This is the first appearance of Calamellus at the Island Arts Summer Arts Festival.

Reserve your seat, invite a friend, and spend an evening discovering how three
antique woodwinds can fill the room with color, conversation, and connection.
Antique instruments often offer a more intimate or nuanced sound versus the louder
tone of modern instruments. A baroque bassoon, for example, may feature a darker,
richer sound than today’s version.

The program includes a Baroque Suite of dances by Handel, Lully, Boyce, and
Rameau; Three Tangos by A. Barbirolli; a trio by M. Franck; Century Dances by Cecilia
McDowall; and several other pieces.

The three musicians are principals in the Champlain Philharmonic Orchestra:
Ruby Brezinsky — Oboe
Lisa Hoyt — Bassoon
Margaret Barsumian — Clarinet

Meet and greet the Trio members and enjoy light refreshments after the
performance. Their concert last Fall in South Hero was enjoyed by a full house. This
is your opportunity to enjoy this unusual ensemble.
