Review by Isabella Lavelli

The album Music for Wind Quintet by Sir Edward Elgar, performed by the Athena Ensemble, is a delightful collection of chamber music that showcases the composer's skill and versatility. The ensemble's interpretation of Elgar's works is masterful, bringing a fresh and vibrant energy to the pieces.

The album features several of Elgar's lesser-known compositions, including his Serenade for Wind Quintet and his Elegy for Strings, arranged for wind quintet. The ensemble's performance of these pieces is particularly noteworthy, bringing out the intricate melodies and harmonies that are often overlooked in these works.

The album also includes Elgar's well-known Chanson de Matin and Chanson de Nuit, which are given a new lease on life in this arrangement for wind quintet. The Athena Ensemble's interpretation of these pieces is both sensitive and nuanced, capturing the emotional depth and beauty of Elgar's music.

This is highly delightful chamber music for woodwind quintet, clearly inspired by W.A. Mozart. Elgar composed quite a few of these woodwind pieces as a young man in Worcester, and he enjoyed playing them with four friends, who were all amateur musicians. And judging by the way he wrote for the different instruments in terms of difficulty, the 1st flutist, the oboist and the bassoon player must have been quite accomplished instrumentalists. Elgar himself played the bassoon part, by the way. :-)

If people had this running in their heads all day, what a wonderful world we would be living in. Sublime recording and Ensemble. Thank You Sir Edward Elgar.

I have this album, and I've been looking where to find the sheet music. The composition is a really beautiful gem of the chamber music genre.
