I composed Quintet for Winds in 2018. It is written for intermediate standard wind ensembles looking for music that is melodic and approachable, but which also has colourful harmonies and varied rhythms. Each of the four movements is a short character piece that could be played on its own in a concert, but they also work well together as a group. I have really enjoyed the challenge of writing for five solo instruments and they all have interesting and important parts within the texture.
