Eb (opt.), 4 Bb, Eb Alto, Bb Bass, BBb Contra-Bass (opt), Eb Contra-Alto (opt.). Published in 1964, this well established contest and recital favourite in two movements presents the ensemble in dramatically different stylistic lights. The first movement is a larghetto theme that should be played very freely with much expression, while the second is a lilting scherzando featuring a steady pulse. Rich harmonies abound in both.
