Haflidi Hallgrímsson: Intarsia: Wind Ensemble: Instrumental Work

Six Movements For Wind Quintet-The original title for this composition was Eight Pieces for Wind Quintet. They received their first performance given by the New Music Group of Scotland (the commissioners) at the Reid Hall Edinburgh on 23 April 1991. Hallgrimsson then rewrote these pieces integrated them into four substantial movements and renamed the work 'Intarsia' a term borrowed from knitting when integrating patterns and colours.
