String Quartet no. 13 in G major, op. 106 / String Quintet in E-flat major, op. 97

Album by Antonín Dvořák & Pacifica Quartet & Michael Tree

This release is a recording of Antonín Dvořák's String Quartet No. 13 in G major, Op.106 (composed 1895) and his String Quintet in E-flat major, Op.97 (composed 1893). Both works sit firmly in the late-Romantic chamber repertoire, combining Dvořák's Bohemian folk-influenced melodies, expansive lyrical writing and rhythmic vitality, with the quintet reflecting influences from his time in the United States and the quartet exemplifying his late-period contrapuntal complexity and structural refinement.

First released: 2001
