As one might expect of music by Pleyel, the Op. 18 quintets are imbued with appealing melodies and pleasing harmonies. They are also surprisingly inventive in terms of combining instrumental timbres, in spite of the limits imposed by their reduced scoring. Technically, they are not especially difficult, however the flute, oboe, violin and viola are all given several solo episodes, some of which may require a bit of practice!

Wind Quintet is in three movement for the traditional arrangement of flute, oboe, clarinet, horn, & bassoon. This piece offers a wide range for performers and audiences alike. The 1st movement is witty and fast paced with an engaging mix of semi-chromatic tonalism. The 2nd movement has a long melodic arc with beautiful harmonies. The finale engages with Stravinsky-esque splashes of color and a wonderfully active dialogue between the musicians as the themes are bounced around and developed. Each instrument has it’s moments to shine in this animated and inventive quintet.Flute, Oboe, Clarinet, Bassoon & Horn Duration: 13' Composed: 2020 Published by: Todd Mason.

Fill your sanctuary with Palm Sunday majesty and excitement with this anthem from Joe Martin. The first of three verses is a lively call-and-response setting of the scripture: “Who is this King of glory?†The contrasting middle verse is an inventive pairing of the traditional hymn tune LEONI with the text “All Glory, Laud and Honor.†The final verse returns the lively theme of the first in counterpoint with drum-like hosannas. An energetic accompaniment that ties all three verses together, whether provided by piano alone or orchestra, makes this anthem the perfect choice for Palm Sunday. (From the cantata Who Is This King? SATB – 55/1096L; SAB – 55/1097L.) Instrumentation: 2 Flutes, Oboe, 2 Clarinets, Bassoon, 2 F Horns, 3 Trumpets, 2 Trombones, Tuba, Timpani, 2 Percussion, Violin 1 & 2, Viola, Cello, Bass.
