About the Poulenc Trio

For over 20 years, the Poulenc Trio has rediscovered and redefined piano-wind chamber music for the 21st century. With performances in 47 U.S. states and at prestigious festivals worldwide, they have established themselves as one of the most active touring piano-wind ensembles in the country. The New York Times has praised their "elegant rendition" and The Washington Post commends them for doing their namesake proud with "intriguing and beautifully played" programs that exude "convincing elegance, near effortless lightness, and grace.”
