I've now written two chamber music works, quintets, that include double bass. One is a string quintet (string quartet + double bass) and the other is a mixed wind and string quintet (oboe, clarinet, violin, viola & double bass).

The first quintet is called "Tango Suite", and is a newly prepared instrumental version of the original work which I wrote for contralto and string quintet. This was commissioned by Radio France in 2002. The score and parts can be freely downloaded from my website at http://www.nigelkeay.com/stringquintettango.htm

The second quintet, called "Diversions", is the same instrumentation as the Prokofiev Quintet. I played viola in a group that performed the Prokofiev Quintet, so I wanted to create a new quintet of the same instrumentation to couple with the Prokofiev. The score of this work can also be downloaded from my site at http://www.nigelkeay.com/diversions.htm Diversions is on the blumlein records CD Diversions -Autour du hautbois and also available on itunes.
