Spring mood

for flute, oboe and piano

As the title Frühlingsstimmung already suggests, this one-movement trio for flute, oboe and piano is characterized by a lively, cheerful atmosphere despite its equally wistful, lyrical and energetic moments.
The main theme with its bold staccatos and leaps, the propulsive, throbbing quaver accompaniment, the elegiac, songful secondary theme, which brightens into a radiant major in the recapitulation, expressive accents and brilliant scales in the development, stimulatingly communicating instruments and a coda that chases to the final chords in playful imitations provide entertaining variety.
Following on from the classical-romantic tradition, this melodically memorable trio makes a winning contribution to the literature for woodwind instruments and entertains performers and audience alike in a charming way.
