Listen to the way the Albert-Schweitzer-Quintett accelerates the tempo at the end of the first movement of Op. 100, No. 1. You will realize how carefully planned and executed these interpretations are, while managing to sound thoroughly spontaneous. This volume of the ongoing Reicha set includes two large wind quintets, both around half an hour long and both substantial and entertaining enough to sustain that length. The encore is a charming one-movement Adagio by Reicha. This series came out in the late 1980s and continues to dominate the field of Reicha wind quintets, which, as soon as you hear any of these discs, you will realize is an important field indeed, some of the greatest unknown music of the classical period. --Leslie Gerber
