Fernström, John (1897 - 1961)

Blåskvintett op. 59 (F-Dur)

(flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, horn)

Svensk Musik

Rating: mid-grade

1. Allegro molto
2. Adagio
3. Scherzo - Allegro molto
4. Final - Rondo: Vivace

Very melodic, the many changes of metrum are easy to play, because you have always to count quarter notes. Technically not that difficult, only the french horn has to play some high notes. It is modern music but it is nevertheless singing. All of us five decided, this is something we wanna work on.
