Lennox Berkeley – Five Short Pieces Op. 4 (Andante; Allegro Moderato; Moderato; Andante; Allegro) arranged by John Mason
Wind Quintet (Flute, Oboe, Clarinet in A , Horn in F, Bassoon)
Advanced level; Duration 6′ 15”
Sir Lennox Berkeley (1903-89), like Francis Poulenc and Igor Stravinsky whose music he loved, had a great love for wind instruments. These early piano pieces from 1936 lend themselves beautifully to arrangement for wind quintet. John Mason’s setting is great fun to play and provides joyful listening for your audience . Enjoy!
