Double Entendre Music Ensemble performs music that delights audiences with the rich sounds of double reed instruments. From Bach to Bresnick, our concerts are passionate, uplifting and lively. Founded in 2005, NYC-based Double Entendre Music Ensemble is a collective of like-minded musicians devoted to adventurous exploration of the double reed repertoire. Noted for its first-rate musicianship and creativity, the Ensemble illuminates classics, revives neglected music, and commissions new works for these soulful instruments.

Double Entendre is honored to perform at the IDRS Convention in Indianapolis on June 13! We will perform pieces we have commissioned by Stephanie Berg, Wendy Griffiths, and Rich Shemaria.

Double Entendre Music Ensemble is funded by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature. Our programs are also supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council, by the Music Performance Trust Fund, and by private foundations.
