Belgian composer Marcel Poot (1901-1988) was a professional composer professor and musician. He studied at the Belgian Conservatory and went on to attain success as an organist and composer. His substantial compositions for wind and brass are still performed to this day Trio for 3 Clarinets being no exception. In 1925 Poot and several of his contemporaries founded 'The Synthetists' a group to rival 'Les Six' in France. They wished to inject dynamicism in to the conservative Belgian music scene through the composition of modern pieces. Trio for 3 Clarinets reflects this whilst maintaining recognisablemusical elements. Poot's Trio is made up of three movements; 1) Allegretto grazioso 2) Tempo di Barcarola and 3) Allegro giocoso. For advanced clarinetists Poot's Trio for 3 Clarinets is an exciting addition to the ensemble repertoire.

Just Brass No. 29-Francis Poulenc (1899-1963) was an energetic French composer who is known for both his light-hearted instrumental works and his more serious sacred and choral music. His Sonata For Horn Trumpet AndTrombone (1922) is one of his early mischievous pieces. Relatively short at only 8 minutes anyone can find time to fit this piece into their programme. As part of the indispensable Just Brass collection this edition has been edited by Philip Jones and Elgar Howarth. Included with the full score are part books for all three parts with the Trumpet part provided in both C and Bb.
