Mozart - Piano Quintet in Eb Major, K.452

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 aprominent 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 the complete solo part for theBassoon, 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. Accompaniment: Harriet Wingreen, piano: New Art Wind Quintet:Mel Kaplan, oboe: Tina DiDario, bassoon: Murray Panitz, flute: Aldo Simonelli, clarinet
