Kimberly, I don't know much about the piece, except that our woodwind
quintet would love to play it. We have two piano players in our group
and unfortunately neither one of us is talented enough to play two
instruments at a time. We do need a piano player for it and I hope we
can do this one someday. Let us know what you are able to find out.
