Score and five parts (Flute Oboe Clarinet Bassoon Horn).Moderate level of difficulty.Night on Bald Mountain depicts a witches’ sabbath on St. John’s Day the night between 23 and 24 June. Its sections present the infernal noise of ghostly voices the chattering and quarrelling of witches the appearance of ghosts the dance of witches and demons the appearance of Satan the adoration and Black Mass and finally the pealing bells of the village church announcing the break of day and thus the end of the witches’ sabbath.Whether intentionally or not Mussorgsky actually finished the work on the eve of St. John’s Day (23 June1867) after spending twelve days on its composition. Technically speaking Joachim Linckelmann’s exciting version for Wind Quintet is the arrangement of an arrangement as Mussorgsky’s symphonic poem is almost invariably heard in the familiar version by Rimsky-Korsakov.

Rhapsody In Blue is a major addition to the woodwind quintet repertoire.This version of Rhapsody In Blue includes a score and five parts and has been arranged for Flute Oboe Clarinet in B-flat Horn in F and Bassoon at an intermediate playing level.Many people know the famous Clarinet glissando opening to Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue but very few know that the original version was scored for two Pianos and that the glissando was initially just an ascending scale.Joachim Linckelmann’s superb arrangement of this modern classic is based on this original version and with the exception oftwo solo Piano passages that cannot be realised by a woodwind quintet the entire work is presented.

Scherzo Op.48 is a really lyrical piece for Wind Quintet (Flute Oboe Clarinet Bassoon Horn) which lasts around 2 minutes 30 seconds. The work starts Allegro Vivo with the main theme and some variations of this theme by each instrument then appear to end up on a final Animando. It reminds of music played to hold suspense during movies. This restless piece requires a good mastering of breathing techniques. This book features score and parts. Eugène Bozza won different prizes at the Conservatoire de Paris such as the First Prizes for the Violin conducting and composition as well as the GrandPrix de Rome. He composed several operas chamber works and ballets among others.
