Mozart – Piano Quintet in E-flat Major, KV452

This luscious quintet is scored for piano, oboe, clarinet, horn and bassoon. Mozart’s magnificent orchestration of the winds with piano creates a warm and glowing texture of sound, and each instrument emerges at times for a prominent position. Cast in three movements: Largo/Allegro moderato; Larghetto; and Rondo/Allegretto. Truly one of the great works in this format and wonderful fun to practice and perform. Includes complete solo Piano part, printed on high-quality ivory paper; and a compact disc containing a complete performance of the quintet with soloist, then performed again minus the soloist. Performed by Harriet Wingreen, piano Accompaniment: New Art Wind Quintet
