String Quintet in C, D. 956 / Quartettsatz, D. 703

Album by Franz Schubert & Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center

String Quintet in C, D. 956 and Quartettsatz, D. 703 are chamber works by Franz Schubert, composed in 1828 and 1820 respectively. The C major quintet exemplifies Schubert's late harmonic richness and expanded string textures, while the earlier Quartettsatz presents a concise, dramatic movement that reveals his evolving approach to melody and structural experimentation within his chamber-music output.
