The Harmonica Trio

In music, a trio refers to a composition for three performers or three musical parts, a form often seen in the Baroque era with trio sonatas featuring two melodic instruments and a basso continuo. The term also describes various ensembles of three musicians, including common types such as piano trios and string trios, and has been used since the 17th century to denote the contrasting middle section of ternary forms, such as minuets in classical works. Trio compositions span a range of musical styles and genres, showcasing the collaboration of three distinct musical voices.
