The Poulenc Trio has earned critical acclaim over its 20-year history, with the New York Times praising their “elegant rendition” of Piazzolla’s tangos and the Washington Post commending them for honoring their namesake with an “intriguing and beautifully played program” that exuded “convincing elegance, near effortless lightness, and grace.”

Pianist Irina Kaplan Lande teaches at the Peabody Institute, oboist Aleh Remezau is renowned for his “incredibly expressive” playing (Vancouver Sun), and Bryan Young is principal bassoonist at the Baltimore Chamber Orchestra.
