Streichquintett C-Dur

Album by Franz Schubert & Emerson String Quartet & Mstislav Rostropovich

Streichquintett C-Dur (String Quintet in C major), D. 956, is a chamber work by Franz Schubert, composed in 1828. Scored for two violins, viola and two cellos, it exemplifies Schubert's late style through expansive lyricism, adventurous harmonic progressions and a symphonic breadth applied to chamber forces, reflecting the mature phase of his compositional output.
