Chrzaszcz op. 23, for flute, oboe and cello, Performing score

The Chrzaszcz-Trio was composed in the summer of 1986 for colleagues of Cambridge University and premiered in Warsaw in the same year. The Polish word ?Chrzascz" (pronounced: ?shonshtsh") means grasshopper and was chosen as a title due to the wide leaping intervals and the abrupt rhythmical gestures present in the work (quoted from the preface). This composition is short and not too difficult to realize.
