Wind Chamber Music

What wind chamber music would people recommend to me?

And I mean chamber music that involves only wind, like wind quartets or quintets, that sort of thing.

I play clarinet, and would love to hear some things that I could possibly play in the not-too-distant future when I venture off to the big city for my degree.

Thanks everyone!!!

You might also be interested in W. A. Mozart's Serenade in B-flat (Gran Partita) for 13 wind instruments -

If one substitutes the double bass with the double bassoon, then the serenade will become a true opus for wind ensemble.

As an oboist in an amateur wind ensemble myself, I found a lot of information on this bibliography of double wind quintet (ie: 2 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 horns, 2 bassons, 2 clarinets.)
