Piano Quartet & Quintet
Album by Robert Schumann & Alexander Melnikov & Isabelle Faust & Antoine Tamestit & Jean‐Guihen Queyras
Piano Quartet and Piano Quintet are chamber works by German composer Robert Schumann, composed in 1842. They are Romantic-era chamber pieces that combine a prominent, often virtuosic piano part with rich string textures and mark a key moment in Schumann's turn toward concentrated instrumental writing that influenced later chamber repertoire.
