Recorded live at Saint Martin-in-the-Fields on June 16th 2017.

German composer Danzi’s charming wind quintets not only helped establish the genre but are also some of the earliest in the repertoire. As young man he greatly revered Mozart and over his lifetime he was both a contemporary of Beethoven and mentor to Weber. His music reflects the transition from the late Classical to early Romantic periods.
