Death and the Maiden / String Quintet in C major

Album by Franz Schubert & Pavel Haas Quartet & Danjulo Ishizaka

Death and the Maiden / String Quintet in C major is a pairing of chamber works by Franz Schubert, composed in 1824 and 1828 respectively. Both pieces exemplify Schubert's mature chamber writing within early Romanticism, combining songlike melodies, expansive harmonic exploration and intense dramatic contrast, and they helped define the repertoire of 19th-century chamber music.
