CAPITAL REEDS
CAPITAL REEDS is a Wellington-based reed trio comprised primarily of an oboe, a clarinet, and a bassoon. Sometimes we also feature other less familiar reed instruments such as the cor anglais, bass clarinet, and contrabassoon. The players of CAPITAL REEDS are all connected with each other through the activities of Orchestra Wellington and the RNZAF Symphonic Band.
Our aim is to showcase the reed trio as a distinctive, versatile, and edgy combination of musical instruments by presenting great pieces of music from different and contrasting eras, styles, and genres. Alongside skilfully crafted chamber music works composed specifically for reed trio, we have a variety of artful musical arrangements to share, as well as some original jazz-inspired sonorities. The musicians: Calvin Scott (oboe/cor anglais), Patrick Hayes (clarinet/bass clarinet), Oscar Lavën (bassoon/contrabassoon).
