Chapters 2 through 5 each explore one of the following works and composers: Dixtuor pour instruments à vent by Claude Arrieu, Dos Danzas Latinas by Nancy Galbraith, Arsenal of Democracy by Julia Wolfe, and Wind Sinfonietta by Ruth Gipps. This document may be utilized by directors and/or conductors of academic or professional chamber ensembles to facilitate preparation of these works, thereby promoting an increasing number of performances for these distinguished compositions.
