Quintets for Piano and Wind Instruments
Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & Ludwig van Beethoven & Ensemble Wien-Berlin & James Levine
Quintets for Piano and Wind Instruments is a set of chamber works by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composed in 1784. Scored for piano with pairs of wind instruments, the works exemplify Classical-period chamber music through transparent textures, conversational interplay between piano and winds and a balance of lyrical melody and formal clarity, and they occupy a notable position in Mozart's output for small ensembles and in the development of wind chamber repertoire.
