I'm looking for a classical flute, viola, and piano trio to play with two of my friends, hopefully for a school concert sometime before May/June, and I'm having quite a bit of trouble finding one. I would like something non-atonal, and preferably something orginally written for said instruments (unless there is something like Flight of the Bumblebee which sounds better on instruments it was not written for). It should be under ten minutes in length... probably over five, but that depends on the piece. At the moment all I have is a Bloch concertino of which I cannot find a full record. Any suggestions?

Try this: It is something pulled at random. But it sounds like it might work. I haven't heard it though.

Toast, that CD could very well be what I'm looking for. Unfortunately, I can't listen to the sound files, presumably because I don't have a subscription, and the distributer's website does not seem to have the CD available. Are you (or is anyone else) a subscriber, by any chance? If not, I suppose I'll delegate the task of finding and obtaining this CD to my family.

I'm not a subscriber; I just thought it might be an example of some music which might work.

If you do find yourself stuck you could always just find a conventional piano trio, replace the violin with the flute, and transpose the 'cello up an octave for viola. Not a guaranteed solution but you never know until you try :D I've seen more far-fetched ensembles work after all, such as a bagpipe/marimba/ocarina/double bass. Yes, it really worked. No, really, it did.

I'd rather play something written originally for those three instruments - I have plenty of material that's already transposed.

That would be an interesting ensemble to hear...

I apologize for double-posting and bring a dead topic back to life at the same time, but I am still in need of help and preferred doing this to starting a new topic. I've decided on the Bloch concertino (titled Concertino, for flute, viola, & strings (or piano)), but I cannot find the sheet music. I've found several copies of "Concertino, for flute, clarinet, viola, & strings (piano reduction)", but I have no way of knowing if this is the same thing (although I found an odd site which implied that this is the case). Does anyone know where I can find this music?
