Guise, Jean François de - Woodwind Quintet Op. 17, No. 9

Guise Jean François de
Woodwind Quintet
 op. 17, No. 9

The work Woodwind Quintet op.17, No.9 was composed in 2015.
The work presents itself very melodious and warm in sound, although it definitely uses a contemporary tonal language.
All instruments are used according to their timbre, which additionally strengthens the traditional impression the composition gives.
The bassoon's opening motif is taken over in fragments in the other voices, changed further and further and developed rhythmically.
In this way, a piece of chamber music gradually emerges that captivates its listeners. That the work has a short duration is peculiar to most of Jean François de Guise's works. Especially with such a piece, one would wish to hear more. But, sometimes less is more.
