English Dances Op. 27 and 33, are two sets of light music pieces, composed for orchestra by Malcolm Arnold in 1950 and 1951.
Each set consists of four dances inspired by, although not based upon, country folk tunes and dances.
Each movement is denoted by the tempo marking, as the individual movements are untitled.

 This is my clarinet quintet arrangement of set 2 (Eb, 2 Bbs, Alto (alternative Bb), bass)
Needs a good Eb player.

I. Allegro non troppo 
II. Con brio 
III. Grazioso 
IV. Giubiloso - lento e maestoso

The 30 secs mp3 is the end of mvt. 2 con brio (a wind quintet arrangement)

The you tube link is also a wind quintet version.

The “Sinfonia Burlesca� is a vehicle for the presentation of comedic characters.

It demonstrates Leopold Mozart’s predilection for laconic musical genre-painting: he dedicates a minuet to:

“Hanswurst� (literally “John-Sausage�) familiar from traditional Salzburg street theatre;

“Signor Pantalone�, the commedia dell’arte’s wealthy, aged and vainglorious womanizer gets his own conceited Andante.

Harlequin, the mercurial and mischievous trickster in the chequered costume, gets the last word, mocking and bamboozling his upper-class audience.

This is the 1st movement: Sinfonia or ouverture which  was originally written for a string orchestra of 2 viola, 2 celli and bass/bassoon.

I have arranged it for clarinet quintet (4 Bbs and one bass) and transposed it from G to Eb so clarinets are playing in F.
