A classic little Elgar gem - composed originally for Violin and Piano as a present for his future wife, and also reworked by the composer for Piano, Cello and Chamber Orchestra. This gorgeous flute choir setting gives groups an opportunity to work on sound, ensemble skills and dynamics, and makes an ideal concert piece.

An unapologetically tangoey Tango, first conceived as a warm-up piece for a group of over 150 flautists at the Birmingham Flute Choir Festival in March 2024, and here presented in a slightly smaller, more accessible version, without the Contra Flutes. The strident minor key 'A' section featuring, initially, the 1st and 2nd Flutes alternates with a more dolce, lyrical 'B' theme, which is first presented by the 4th Flutes and Alto Flutes. Everybody gets a chance for melodic material though, and there is plenty to work on in term of dynamics, articulation and style. Very enjoyable to play, and to listen to!

One of his many Lyric Pieces, Wedding Day at Troldhaugen was written to celebrate Grieg and his wife Nina's silver wedding anniversary. Troldhaugen was the name of Grieg's house. The joyous outer sections depict the wellwishers' congratulations, while the middle section is more subdued and romantic. A great showpiece for wind quartet with plenty to do for all the players.

Completed in 1893, Debussy's String Quartet is widely considered to be a masterwork of the chamber music repertory. The 3rd mvt: Andantino, doucement expressif seems well suited to the varying timbres of the wind quintet, with its lyrical themes heard on each of the five intruments. A stunning recital piece for an advanced ensemble.
