String Quintets Op. 88 & 111

Album by Johannes Brahms & Leipziger Streichquartett

String Quintets Op. 88 and Op. 111 are two chamber music works by the German composer Johannes Brahms, composed in 1882 and 1890 respectively. They exemplify Brahms's mature Romantic chamber style, employing rich contrapuntal textures, expansive lyricism and tightly integrated classical structures, and they represent key works in his later chamber output.
