String Quintet

Album by Franz Schubert & Kuss Quartet & Miklós Perényi

The 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 produces rich low-register sonorities and expansive melodies that blend Classical structural clarity with Romantic harmonic daring, reflecting Schubert's late compositional style and his focus on large-scale, expressive chamber music near the end of his life.
