Trio for Flute, Horn, and Piano by Eric Ewazen, published by Theodore Presser
If you love playing Eric Ewazen’s flute sonatas or horn chamber music, or if you are fan of Brahms’s chamber music, then this exhilarating work is for you! Among Ewazen’s most performed works, the TRIO, inspired by the Brahms horn trio and originally for Violin, Horn, and Piano, has been adapted by the composer for Flute, Horn, and Piano. With a rollicking scherzo and beautiful melodic movements, this 21-minute work is a joy to play and to listen to.
Composer Note: I've always been fascinated and inspired by chamber works offering several instrumental versions of the same piece, resulting in a new feel and color... The original scoring for Horn, Violin, and Piano was commissioned by and gratefully dedicated to Chamberosity, representing and homage to one of my favorite chamber pieces of all time, the 'Trio for Horn, Violin, and Piano' by Brahms. The four movements are modeled after the Brahms, with a slow-fast-slow-fast scheme to the entire work.'
