	Divertimento for oboe, clarinet in B♭ and bassoon	Bassoon ⋅ Clarinet ⋅ Oboe	11-12'	Post, David	Info/Listen/Buy »
I wrote the Divertimento for oboe, clarinet and bassoon in 1995 as an entry in the New England Reed Trio annual composition competition.

Several listeners have mentioned that the second variation tricked them into thinking there were really two […]
