About

After yesterday's quintets for strings and with clarinet, tonight it's the turn of Mozart's two quartets for piano and strings. Although Mozart composed only two opuses for this quartet, K 478 and 493 remain the pinnacles of the genre, the Romantic era having cultivated the trio or quintet form with the piano to a greater extent. From the outset Mozart explored all the possibilities of the very special genre of the piano quartet, still in a chamber form but already with the spirit of the concerto.

Wagner became enthusiastic about Schumann's Piano and String Quintet and opened up to its author by writing: "Your Quintet, my very dear Schumann, pleased me greatly. I can see what you are aiming at, and I assure you that I am aiming at much the same sort of thing: it is our only salvation: beauty!'' A journey between fantasy and discipline, between a scherzo molto vivace and a funeral march before leaving for a final allegro. Grandiose and the first romantic masterpiece of the genre, this quintet was later performed by Brahms, Dvořák and César Franck.
