Trio Dhoore was a Flemish instrumental folk ensemble from Belgium, consisting of siblings Ward, Hartwin, and Koen Dhoore. The group was active between 2010 and 2021.
History
The three brothers started making music together at approximately ten years old and officially formed their trio in 2010. In September 2021, the group disbanded, with Ward and Hartwin continuing their musical journey as the duo Siger.
Musical style
Chris Nickson of RootsWorld identifies the band as a significant presence in the European instrumental music landscape, drawing inspiration from but not confined to their Flemish roots. Peter Thelen from Exposé characterizes their work as "elegantly composed melodic arrangements" where each member plays a vital role in shaping their distinctive sound. According to Irish Music Magazine, Trio Dhoore offers an innovative gateway into Flemish musical traditions. Alex Gallacher of Folk Radio UK praises the brothers' natural musical synergy and their contribution to the revival of traditional Flemish tunes.
