String Quintets, Vol. II: 6 Quintets, op. 11

Album by Luigi Boccherini & La magnifica comunità

String Quintets, Vol. II: 6 Quintets, op. 11 is a set of six string quintets by Italian composer Luigi Boccherini, published circa 1771. These Classical-era chamber works are scored for two violins, viola and two cellos, feature galant-era melodic elegance and conversational textures, and sit within Boccherini's productive period of chamber writing in which he expanded the cello's role in the quintet medium.
