String Quintet In C Major, D.956(Op.163)
Symbolic image – for the detailed description and condition, please read the Item Details below.
The Wiener Konzerthausquartett and cellist Günther Weiss deliver a deeply moving interpretation of Schubert's String Quintet in C Major, one of music's most profound late works. Written in his final weeks, this five-movement masterpiece moves from intimate melodic beauty to passages of genuine turbulence and darkness. The addition of a second cello gives the work a richer, more resonant sound than a traditional quartet, and this Westminster recording captures both the technical refinement and emotional depth these Austrian musicians bring to their native tradition. Schubert's late chamber works stand among the greatest achievements in classical music, and this performance does them full justice.
