Item Description:	Arrangements for woodwind quintet. "For this CD ... Raaf Hekkema arranged the suite Le rappel des oiseaux from Rameau's Pièces de clavessin [= Pieces for harpsichord] (1724). Likewise he based the suite La triomphante on the Nouvelles suites de pièces de clavecin (c. [1729]), with the exception of the Prélude, which comes from the Premier livre (1706). Additionally ... Jelte Althuis arranged five orchestral works by Rameau, forging them into the suite Les boréades"--Insert, page 5.
