词条 | Woodwind quartet |
释义 |
A woodwind quartet, sometimes casually called wind quartet, is an ensemble of four woodwind instruments, or music written for four instruments. The usual scoring is flute, oboe, clarinet and bassoon.[1] The instruments in a woodwind quartet usually have different ranges that allow for rich harmonies with high and low tones.[2] Since these four instruments are from different subgroups of the instrument family, wind quartet music has timbral variety from each instrument's resonance. In addition to its use as a chamber ensemble, the woodwind quartet may function as a concertino group in a concerto grosso. Examples are the Quadruple Concerto for woodwind quartet and orchestra (1935) by Jean Françaix, and the Concerto Grosso for woodwind quartet and wind ensemble (1959) by Heitor Villa-Lobos. Paul Hindemith added a harp to the woodwind quartet in his Concerto for flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, harp, and orchestra (1949). Woodwind quartet repertoire20th century
