String Quartet K428 & String Quintet K515

Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & Lindsay String Quartet & Louise Williams

String Quartet K428 & String Quintet K515 is a release of works by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composed in 1783 and 1787 respectively. The music is chamber music in the Viennese Classical style with clear textures, formal balance and rich harmonic detail, and it comes from Mozart's mature period when he wrote quartets influenced by Haydn and later expanded the quartet medium into larger quintet scoring.
