In
classical instrumental music, any additional instrument (such as a
piano,
clarinet,
oboe, etc.) joined to the usual
string quartet (two
violins, a
viola, and a
cello), gives the resulting ensemble its name, such as "
piano quintet", "
clarinet quintet", etc. A piece of music written for such a group is similarly named. The standard
wind quintet consists of one player each on
flute,
oboe,
clarinet,
bassoon, and
horn, while the standard
brass quintet has two
trumpets,
horn,
trombone, and
tuba. Other combinations are sometimes found, however. In
jazz music, a quintet is group of five players, usually consisting of two soloing instruments, such as
guitar,
trumpet,
saxophone,
clarinet,
flute or
trombone, in addition to those of the traditional
jazz trio or
rhythm section –
piano,
double bass,
drums. In some modern bands there are quintets formed from the same family of instruments with various voices, as an all-
brass ensemble, or all
saxophones, in
soprano,
alto,
baritone, and
bass, and sometimes
contrabass. ==Notable classical music==
