I can't remember the composer correctly off hand, it's either Malcom Arnold, arnold jacobs or gordon jacob(s?), but it's "Old Wine in New Bottles" . Very cool with great horn parts. Maybe it was Vaughn-Williams.
Also there are probably arrangements of general harmonie ensemble things for "double wind quintet" or however they might designate a harmonie ensemble with flutes. I might even have a recording of such an arrangement although I don't have access to it at the moment. Another piece that comes to mind is the Verne Reynolds transcription of the Little Symphony,(I think). transcribed from piano, all of the parts are very well written and idiomatic. I know there is an arrangement of Carmen for this double wind quintet. We had a concert with a double quintet last year for a large university dinner and we programed these pieces. I can get the correct info from our conductor if you'd like.
