Quintet, D. 956 (C Major/C-Dur/Ut Majeur)
Album by Franz Schubert & Bernard Greenhouse & Juilliard String Quartet
The String Quintet in C major, D. 956 is a chamber music composition by Austrian composer Franz Schubert, completed in 1828. Scored for two violins, a viola and two cellos, it features expansive, song-like melodies, rich harmonic exploration and striking contrasts between movements, and it is one of Schubert's final major works that illustrates his late-period chamber style.
