Quintette à cordes en Ut majeur, op. 163, D. 956

Album by Franz Schubert & Dimov String Quartet & Roland Pidoux

The String Quintet in C major, D. 956 (Op. posth. 163) is a late chamber work by Franz Schubert, composed in 1828 and published posthumously. Scored for two violins, viola and two cellos, it combines expansive, lyrical melodies, rich harmonic language and contrapuntal textures characteristic of Schubert's late style and stands among his final completed works, contributing to the development of Romantic chamber repertoire.
