The composer, Destenay, was Algerian but also spent time in Paris. His Trio in B Minor, composed around 1906, was dedicated to the late nineteenth century oboe teacher at the Paris Conservatory, Bleuzet, and to the clarinet teacher at Lamoureux, Stiewenard. This three-movement trio is a major work for this instrumental combination. Virtuoso technique is required of all three instrumentalists, but especially with the pianist. Duration: approximately 21.5 minutes. The instrumentation is oboe, clarinet in A, and piano.
