Grieg,   Lyric Suite. 

Arrangements by Tony Turrill of 8 pieces selected from the 10 books

Schubert, Wind Quintet.

An arrangement of a violin sonata - fans of the children’s TV programme Little Bear will recognise the last movement.  A different arrangement also for wind quintet is used  as its background music.

Satie, Sports et Divertissement.

A quintet arranged from 20 short pieces that Satie wrote to go with an exhibition of paintings.  For each piece, he includes a form of words, often rather strange (here given in both English and the original French).  These could be spoken in performance with the quintet - a la Facade.

Faure,  Quintet for Piano, Oboe, Clarinet, Bassoon and Horn.

A setting of three movements from Faure’s work for piano and string trio.
