About
The String Quintet No.2 followed 19 years later, in 1845, two years before his death. Despite the intervening years, the two Quintets are similar in style and form, with richly melodic and haunting slow movements and two wonderfully contrasting scherzos.
Included on this disc is a Minuetto - the original third movement for the Quintet No.1, which was replaced by the Intermezzo.
Fine Arts Quartet:
- Ralph Evans, Efim Boico (violin)
- Yuri Gandelsman (viola)
- Wolfgang Laufer (cello)
