Brahms: Hungarian Dance WoO1 (Ungarischer Tanz) No.5 - symphonic wind dectet/bass

The Hungarian Dances (German: Ungarische Tänze) by Johannes Brahms (WoO 1), are a set of 21 lively dance tunes based mostly on Hungarian themes, completed in 1869.

They vary from about a minute to five minutes in length. They are among Brahms's most popular works, and were the most profitable for him. Each dance has been arranged for a wide variety of instruments and ensembles. Brahms originally wrote the version for piano four hands and later arranged the first 10 dances for solo piano.

Number 5 is probably the most well known.



It is arranged here for double wind quintet ( and optional double bass/piccolo)

I have also done arrangements for different instrumentation groups.
