Quintet for Wind Instruments in E-flat Major, Op. 88 No. 2

Set of Parts
Reicha published a total of 24 wind quintets for the classical scoring of flute, oboe, clarinet, horn, and bassoon; Op. 88, No. 2 is one of the best-loved and most played. If it were possible to surpass Haydn in the composition of quartets and quintets, Reicha would have succeeded with these quintets, thus raved the Allgemeine Musikalische Zeitung on a performance of Reicha’s quintets, it seems to me that it is impossible to unite more correctness and clarity with more inventiveness and originality. This work exudes inspiration and spirit from every note. In addition to the parts, we have also produced a handy study edition of the score.
