The Trio L\u00e9zard has been delighting audiences and experts alike for more than 25 years – with an unchanged line-up of St\u00e9phane Egeling, Jan Creutz and Stefan Hoffmann. With its extraordinary continuity and artistic diversity, the ensemble is now one of the leading trios d’anches in the world. Critics praise their “virtuosity” (Klassik.com), “beauty of sound” (FAZ) and “perfect ensemble playing” (Fanfare). A highlight of this recognition was winning the ECHO Klassik 2015 for the recording “Paris 1937”. To date, the Trio L\u00e9zard is the only wind trio to have been awarded a record prize.<\/p>\n
At the heart of the ensemble is the classical instrumentation of oboe, clarinet and bassoon. This combination was first established in the 1930s by the “Trio d’anches de Paris” and elevated to an independent genre. The Trio L\u00e9zard sees itself in this tradition – but at the same time with the aim of continuing and developing it further. The long-standing collaboration between the three musicians is based on a balance of reliability and constant renewal.<\/p>\n
The repertoire now includes more than 200 works from five centuries – from the Renaissance to the Classical and Modern periods. In order to do justice to this stylistic diversity, the trio uses secondary and historical instruments in addition to the main instruments. For example, saxophones, sarrusophones and other reed instruments from the 18th and 19th centuries are used. What they all have in common is that they all produce sound with a single or double reed – and three of them always combine to form a trio d’anches.<\/p>\n
The special mixture of tradition, sound experimentation and artistic curiosity makes the Trio L\u00e9zard an ensemble that never ceases to delight audiences on international stages – unmistakable in its instrumentation, passionate in its music.<\/p>\n
