Obviously it's so much nicer to have a bass instrument. But not having one
is not an excuse for not starting your ensemble. When people hear how good
you are, the bassoonists (or bass clarinettists, saxophonists,
sarrusophonists) will be queueing up to join.

You don't say what the fourth instrument is. If it's a flute - then maybe
you should be looking for a horn, as well. There's so much music for wind
quintet !
