This wind quintet was originally composed in 1972 while Simon was studying composition at the Royal College of Music. He was asked by John Lambert to write a trio for flute, oboe, and bassoon, and feeling this to a rather dry combination, instead offered to write a wind quintet. The work was composed at Walton on Thames in the same year. It received its premiere in 1977. Duration: 14:47
