This Urtext edition from Breitkopf & Härtel, edited by Clemens Harasim, presents Mendelssohn’s two string quintets—Op. 18 and [Op. 87]—in their most authentic form. Based on the Leipzig Mendelssohn Complete Edition, these works for two violins, two violas, and cello reveal striking similarities despite being composed nearly twenty years apart.
