String Quintet in C, D956

Album by Franz Schubert & Lindsay String Quartet & Douglas Cummings

String Quintet in C major, D.956 is a chamber work by Franz Schubert, composed in 1828. Scored for a string quintet with two cellos, it exemplifies Schubert's late style through expansive movement structures, dense counterpoint and a rich harmonic language that broadened the expressive scope of chamber music and influenced subsequent Romantic composers.
