TRIO CONNECTION flauto, clarinetto e pianoforte

As part of the program for "The Concerts of the Conservatory 2026", on Friday, June 5 at 8:00 PM, a concert featuring the Trio Connection will take place at the “Nino Rota” Auditorium in Bari. The trio consists of Giulio Francesconi on flute, Antonio Tinelli on clarinet, and Stefania Argentieri on piano.

An unusual trio with multiple expressive, timbral, and sonic potentials, it is capable of inspiring composers such as Camille Saint-Saëns, whose Tarantella Op. 6 will be performed—a composition named after the city of Taranto. The idea circulated that this lively dance could somehow disperse the toxin from a tarantula’s bite, although this theory was thoroughly debunked, the dance was indeed popular in the 19th century and certainly appreciated for its wild energy. The program will also include the performance of Florent Schmitt's Sonatina in Trio Op. 85, the Sonata by Maurice Emmanuel, and Dmitri Shostakovich's Four Waltzes. Additionally, Charles Koechlin's Sonatina Modale Op. 155 and Heitor Villa-Lobos' Chorôs No. 2 for solo flute and clarinet will be featured.

The artists, the stars of the evening, are faculty members at the “N. Piccinni” Conservatory of Music in Bari, each with an important artistic career spent around the world.
