Elgar: Theme and 10 Variations (including Nimrod) from Enigma Variations Op.36 - wind dectet/bass

Elgar's most famous piece for orchestra.

Here is the theme and 10 of the variations arranged for wind dectet (double wind quintet) and an optional bass line - either tuba/double bass or contra bassoon.

 (I have chosen those variations which suit the wind ensemble.)

some variations are easier than others, but are all worth the challenge!
