FARRENC: Sextet in C minor for Flute, Oboe, Clarinet, Bassoon, Horn, and Piano, Op. 40 (1861)

Wind quintets have the challenge, as well as the benefits, of bringing together five distinct instruments to explore multiple blends of timbres. The program features works by Klughardt, a beautiful example of great writing for each of the five, and Louise Farrenc’s Sextet, which provides expanded sonic dimensions and is a tour de force for the pianist, alongside smaller combinations featuring double reeds, the regal sound of the horn, and upper winds.
