About

One of the best-kept secrets of chamber music, Beethoven’s String Quintet in C major, Op.29 was written between the well-known ‘early’ and ‘middle’ string quartets.

This strangely neglected masterpiece of startling originality is coupled here with Beethoven’s own transcription for string quintet of his early Piano Trio in C minor and the Fugue in D major, a musical curiosity written as an inducement to his publisher to make fewer printing errors.

The Fine Arts Quartet has made many highly acclaimed Naxos recordings.

Fine Arts Quartet:
- Ralph Evans and Efim Boico (violins)
- Chauncey Patterson (viola)
- Wolfgang Laufer (cello)
