Written in the early 1820s and dedicated to Anton Reicha, Danzi’s quintets exemplify elegance, balance, and refined ensemble writing at the dawn of Romantic chamber music.

Danzi - Wind Quintets, Vol.2
Franz Danzi (1763–1826) stands as a key figure in the evolution of wind chamber music. Deeply influenced by his friend and contemporary Anton Reicha—the “father of the wind quintet”—Danzi composed nine quintets between 1820 and 1824, with the Op. 56 set dedicated to Reicha himself. These works reflect a perfect blend of classical structure and early Romantic expression, uniting the individual colors of flute, oboe, clarinet, horn, and bassoon into an elegant ensemble voice.
This recording by the Berlin Philharmonic Wind Quintet, joined by Love Derwinger on piano for the Quintet in D minor, Op. 41, brings to life Danzi’s lyrical charm, graceful balance, and spirited craftsmanship. The album showcases both the sophisticated dialogue between instruments and the warm, engaging sonority that helped shape the modern wind tradition.
