Jan 31, 2024 · Paul Taffanel, Wind Quintet in g minor. January 31, 2024. Paul Taffanel (1844-1908) was born in Bordeaux. He studied flute and composition at the Paris Conservatory and enjoyed a brilliant multi-faceted career. He served as principal flutist of the Paris Opera Orchestra and later as its conductor.
His Wind Quintet in g minor dates from 1876 and is in three movements. The opening theme of the first movement, Allegro, is upbeat and full of forward motion. A second subject, dreamier and more lyrical. The middle movement, Andante, begins with a long, lugubrious though charming horn solo. The mood is relaxed and somewhat reflective.
