String Quintet, D. 956 / Quartettsatz, D. 703

Album by Franz Schubert & Tokyo String Quartet & David Watkin

This chamber-music release by Franz Schubert gathers two of his chamber works composed in 1828 and 1820, respectively. They exemplify Schubert's late chamber style, combining expansive lyricism, rich harmonic exploration and contrapuntal density, and they occupy an important place in his late output and in the development of Romantic chamber music.
