String Quartet in F - mvt.1 (Ravel) for brass - brass quintet

This is a brass quintet arrangement of Ravel’s String Quartet in F, 1st movement (Allegro Moderato). Having studied this work in depth in its original orchestration, I was drawn to the possibility of reworking it for brass - and I think it works very well indeed. Whilst technically challenging for all five players, it is rewarding when worked up to a good standard, demanding techniques such as double tonguing, flutter tonguing, multiphonics, glissandi etc.I have performed this arrangement with a brass quintet with great success.
