Strings Quintets K. 515 & 516

Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & Budapest String Quartet & Walter Trampler

The String Quintets K.515 and K.516 are chamber works by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composed in 1787. Scored for two violins, two violas and cello, the pair exemplifies late Classical chamber music with expanded harmonic ambition, contrapuntal density and contrasting moods that reflect Mozart's mature stylistic development and his exploration of greater emotional range within chamber forms.
