Danish composer Carl Nielsen (appx 1908)
Danish composer Carl Nielsen wrote in a letter to his wife in 1922 that he was delighted with his new wind quintet; that it amused him greatly, and that it’s a happy work. Moreover, it was positively received at its public premiere, performed often during his lifetime, performed at his funeral (in 1931), and has become a standard in the wind quintet repertoire. It’s today’s Midday Masterpiece.
