This is one of four LPs that the Chicago Symphony Woodwind Quintet made for the company in December 1953. Audiophile's founder, Ewing Nunn, recorded relatively few classical recordings - primarily organ music. His main line was revivalist jazz. There is an interesting site about Audiophile here.
The program includes three excellent works by then-living composers:
Ibert: Trois Pieces Breves
Milhaud: La Cheminée dur Roi René
Hindemith: Quintet for Wind Instruments
The quintet members were:
Wilbur Simpson, bassoon (in CSO from 1946-91)
Philip Farkas, horn (CSO 1936-41, 1947-60)
Jerome Stowell, clarinet (CSO 1936-73)
Robert Mayer, oboe (CSO 1931-56)
Ralph Johnson, flute (CSO flute, 1934-72; librarian, 1973-83)
The record was in excellent condition, and the sound is quite vivid.
