Jindrich Feld was a leading Czech composer whom musicologists have described as a musician who was close to his own generation. He came to prominence with his 1955 radio opera A Fairytale about Budulinkove, which was followed by a children's opera The Postman's Tale in 1956.
His Concerto for Chamber Orchestra (1957) incorporated the serial and 12-tone techniques of Schoenberg's 'Second Viennese School', but his works do not succumb to this influence and on the contrary concentrate on incorporating elements of the Czech musical style. The creative nature of Feld's work is reflected in the exceptionally direct sense of music making and the apparent ease with which the composer creates.
Feld's Quintette, composed in 1972, is a significant major work for brass quintet. Its four movements are both subtle and obvious in motivic relationships. Although the Scherzo movement contains a twelve-tone row, the work is in no way a strict serial composition. The Annapolis Brass Quintet's 1976 album Quintessence (Crystal Records S206) included the premiere recording of Quintette by Jindrich Feld.
