String Quintets, K. 515 & 516

Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & Quatuor Van Kuijk & Adrien La Marca

String Quintets, K. 515 & 516 are two chamber works by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composed in 1787. Scored for a string quartet with an additional viola, they broaden classical-era chamber textures through denser harmonic writing and heightened contrapuntal detail, representing a late-stage development in Mozart's compositional style that influenced subsequent chamber music.
