This ensemble of local musicians features music of the Baroque and contemporary women composers, 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 woodwinds can fill the room with color, conversation, and connection.

The program includes:

• A Baroque Suite with pieces by Handel, Rameau, Lully, and Boyce
• Century Dances by Cecilia McDowall, a contemporary British woman composer, highlights the wide variety of dance music; Allemande, Menuet, Mazurka, Tango, and Rock – Last Dance
• Mozart Divertimento
• The Sequoia Trio for oboe, clarinet, bassoon by contemporary American composer Jenni Brandon, a very atmospheric and environmentally conscious piece that will speak to people who love Vermont
• Pajirillo “little bird” by Cardozo Castro, a Columbian composer and infused with a Latin feel

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.
