Is there more than one?

I'm looking at the Curtis Repertoire and it says first movement of the Arnold Brass Quintet. Can somebody tell me the key they probably mean, that is if he has more than one!

He wrote 2. "The" Arnold Quintet is probably the first one.

Ya, I have the first one. This one was written in 1961 it said, and I looked it up and it said the first one was written in 1961 and the second one was written in 1988. I hope this is the right one though.

I don't see why anyone would have the 2nd quintet on any audition list.

It's a simple quintet. I also think that who ever is asking for this should know that there are two quintets, and specify which one.

I can't be positive that the "Arnold Quintet" is titled, Quintet No. 1, but the 2nd one is Quintet No. 2. Maybe that's the reason for confusion. I'm 99.99997% sure that you have the right piece.
