This is My Favorite Things from a collection of flex woodwind quintets arranged by Dr. Donald Jay Smith developed over years of teaching middle school-university bands. The optimal instrumentation is, of course, Flute, Oboe, Clarinet, Bassoon and Horn. But, additional parts have been added so that a second clarinet can cover the oboe part or a second oboe can cover the clarinet part (I actually had that problem once-two great oboe players and no clarinet available to cover the part), Bass Clarinet covering Bassoon and a Bb Horn part in case the student only reads that part or the horn is covered with flugelhorn/baritone or some Bb brass instrument. The quintets I had always performed this one per part and enjoyed this from 6th grade through high school!
