Quintessenz

 Dear Flutelovers,

Happy Ho-ho-hos to all near and far on this festive day! And Healthy thriving New Year too! There has been much discussion and happy new discovery on one of the flute groups this week about the marvellous group Quintessenz.

If you only listen to one performance make it this flute quintet version of Till Eulenspiegel's Merry Pranks by R. Strauss: (video)

Quintessenz has been around since 1996 and I was the happy recipient of some of their earliest scores from piccoloist/arranger Gudrun Hinz. She's a kind and wonderful soul. I see she's not currently performing with the group, so I hope all is well.
