Cavell Wind Trio at Garvan Woodland Gardens

The organizers of the Hot Springs Music Festival bring the Cavell Trio Wind ensemble to Anthony Chapel for an early evening concert of innovative wind music. All three performers (Shelly Meggison, oboe, Osiris J. Molina, clarinet, Jenny Mann, bassoon) are part of the University of Alabama wind faculty. They are active as performers, teachers, and chamber music coaches, and their individual commitment to education and outreach is evidenced in their myriad collective activities – performing, coaching, outreach performances, festival appearances, international travel, and commissioning.

The ensemble takes it name from Mount Edith Cavell, which is located in the Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada. Set in the Athabasca River and Astoria River valleys, Mouth Edith Cavell is known particularly for the Angel Glacier, which hangs over a cliff on its north face.

The Cavell Trio has performed at distinguished international conferences including the 2007 International Experiencing Villa-Lobos Conference, the 2011 and 2012 International Double Reed Society Conferences and the 2012 International Clarinet Festival and continues to keep an active schedule with performances across the nation. A comprehensive performance schedule is available at www.facebook.com/TheCavellTrio.

The trio released their debut recording, The Art of Collective Invention, on the Blue Griffin label in April of 2012. This celebrated recording presents familiar and obscure works by Villa-Lobos, Hétu, Feld, Françaix, Szalowski and Ibert. It is available on iTunes, Amazon.com and bluegriffinrecords.com.
