Yvan Belleau and Kálmán Oláh's "Suite for Clarinet and Jazz Orchestra" is an extended creative work for large ensemble, written as a collaboration between the two composers, that features clarinet as the principal soloist throughout. 

"Quintissime" is the seventh and final movement of the suite. Beginning with the solo guitar, the clarinet enters and plays the melody which is based around a sequence of fifths. This intervallic motif returns throughout the movement and the ensemble brings the suite to a close.

The woodwind configuration is: Solo Clarinet, Soprano Sax, Alto Sax, 2 Tenor Saxes, and Baritone Sax.
