Hi everyone! I need help finding pieces for a wind quintet or quartet that are good for background, easy listening, or cafe type of settings. Any suggestions are appreciated. [cool]

Why not Wolfgang Amadeus' Quintet?
It's always lovely to listen to.

I also love
Jacques Ibert's Trois Pièces Brèves.
Darius Mihaud's Cheminée Du Roi René.
Mmmm, lovely....

There are some fun quartets by Rossini that would be wonderful in a cafe setting. They are for flute, clarinet, bassoon and Horn.
