Since its inception in 1991, Trio Arundel has performed at regional and national conferences, on university campuses and in recitals and performing arts series throughout the United States. The members of the ensemble—Timothy Clinch, oboe; Cynthia Carr, horn; and Julie Nishimura, piano—strive to enrich the repertoire for this unusual instrumental combination through transcriptions and commissioning projects, as well as researching and performing lesser-known original repertoire.
