Maslanka, D
David Maslanka presents his Wind Quintet No. 4, for flute, oboe, clarinet in Bb, horn, and bassoon.
Given that few contemporary composers have written as many as four quintets for this medium (I know of no Reichas in our era), Maslanka s enthusiasm for winds of all kinds is evident. The composer states that his intention was to look back towards the French wind school epitomized by Poulenc, that quintessential melodist. Maslanka clearly loves melody, too, and this work is mildly redolent of the French master, although I think it owes more to Ibert than Poulenc. Its harmony actually sounds as much American to me as it does French, and its opening movements of quiet undulating arpeggios and lullaby morph into boisterous good humor and enthusiasm by the conclusion of the work.
