Quintet with Orchestra

Scott Sutherland · Post by **Scott Sutherland** » Mon May 15, 2006 1:48 am

My quintet has been asked to be featured on a couple of orchestra concerts. I've looked around and haven't been able to find much of anything as far as pieces/arrangements. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Canadian Brass have done a fair number of arrangements with orchestra. I couldn't find any of them on their on-line store, but you could try sending them an email or giving them a call.

Jan Koestsier wrote a BQ concerto w/orchestra. Maybe a movement from that would work. There is at least one recording of Das Rhenquintett playing it.
