Discover Oasis
Masterful Chamber Music
Inspiring & Educational
All avid chamber musicians, the Oasis Ensemble is excited to offer a wide range of outstanding performances and educational experiences throughout the State of Oregon and beyond by partnering with schools, universities, libraries, retirement centers, and cultural organizations and offering educational workshops and interactive performances. We are committed to expanding cultural awareness and knowledge of the beauty of live and recorded classical chamber music by making classical music accessible to people throughout the state who might not otherwise have the opportunity to have this extraordinary experience.
Expanding the Repertoire
Historically, compositions for flute, cello and piano have been fairly rare, so Oasis Ensemble has made it our commitment to continually expand the repertoire by commissioning new works and setting up competitions to encouraging composers from across the globe to write for us! In fact, our 2025 Call for Scores competition drew in responses from 85 composers representing 24 countries worldwide! With these new works we are committed to carefully curate the repertoire so that our audiences can have a deeply satisfying and meaningful experience.

Join the Oasis Ensemble for a concert of vibrant soundscapes suffused with shifting colors and mercurial moments.
Hear works by Debussy, Ravel, and Poulenc as we trace the development of French Impressionism from the late-19th through the mid-20th centuries and move into modern day Italian Impressionism.
Our concert begins with a musical journey through an imaginary world, suspended between dream and memory, where sounds evoke secret landscapes, mythical figures and nature’s reflections in the world premiere of The Enchanted Garden by Italian Composer Roberto Piana, commissioned by the Oasis Ensemble in 2025.
With Guest Pianist Andrew Cannestra (Visiting Assistant Professor of Piano at St. Olaf College)
