Schubert: String Quintet in C Major, D. 956 - Classical Music CD for Relaxation, Study & Dinner Parties

Product Description

Product description It would be difficult to imagine a finer account of this extraordinary work than that of the Melos Quartet and their distinguished guest. The flow of the music is magnificently sustained, its colour and inner life marvellously felt. There is a spontaneity to the playing that perfectly complements the profound whimsicality of Schubert's journeys to remote tonal regions, along with a sensitivity ideally suited to the meditative quality of the composer's lyricism. The recording is warm and spacious, richly nuanced, and admirably balanced. --Ted Libbey Amazon.com It would be difficult to imagine a finer account of this extraordinary work than that of the Melos Quartet and their distinguished guest.
