Composed by Mozart in 1782 for horn, violin, two violas, and cello, the work was transcribed for woodwind quintet by James B. Jones, former horn professor at Ohio State.
 
Opus Number Zoo
This 1951 composition by Luciano Berio includes speaking parts for each of the member of the quintet.
 
Quintette
Written in 1959 by composer Pierre Gabaye, "Quintette" reflects Poulenc's neoclassic style.
