This dissertation has a lot of information about the musical interpretation of several Reed Trios. The paper mainly focuses on French composers such as Ibert and Milhaud, but does mention others. The intended audience of this paper is people who are already in Reed Trios in search of more guidance towards accomplishing a good sounding ensemble and to also find repertoire that may not be performed often. This paper resonates with my topic in that in gives me new ideas on how to describe the sound and balance of the ensemble, and gives more general information about it.

Although this source is not about a true reed trio, it does have a lot of information about another type of reed trio, the double reed trio. This bibliography features small synopsis of many works for double reed trio. This source is intended for people in this ensemble and teachers who may have trouble finding works to perform. There is a wide range in skill level among each of the pieces, ranging from easy to rather difficult atonal music. This paper resonated with my topic in that it offers a different view into a similar, but different ensemble. It is like a sub-genre of the larger one.
