Chamber Music for Violoncellos Volume 5 (EMB) The fifth volume in the series contains cello quintets.Trinklied by Johann Hermann Schein (Bach's predecessor, 100 years earlier, as cantor at St Thomas's, Leipzig) evokes the spirit of student revels, in this work all the parts are equally easy. In the Minuet by Boccherini, the Italian master of the galant style, only the first part requires rather more technical expertise. In the lovely Adagio by Mozart all the parts are equally demanding, the first and second require a sure technique even in the higher positions. Contents 1. Schein, Johann Hermann: Trinklied 2. Boccherini, Luigi: Minuetto 3. Mozart, Wolfgang Amadeus: Adagio
The String Quintet No. 1 in B flat major, K. 174, was written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in December 1773. Unlike Mozart's other viola quintets which are scored for two violins, two violas and cello- this early work is scored for two violins, two violas and basso.
Enjoy two rare essential chamber works by the composer of 'Ein Deutsches Requiem'. The first is heroic and rigorous, while the second is a warm and luxurious dialogue between woodwinds and strings, ending with an intimate exchange between clarinet and cello.
