Mozart always brings charm, elegance and wit, however harsh his circumstances, and nowhere more so than in his gorgeous E-flat major string quintet, written in the last year of his short life along with the Magic Flute, the Clarinet Concerto and the Requiem.

At the head of each movement of his F major quintet, Brahms wrote “In the Spring of 1882,” and the resulting nickname of “Spring” Quintet is perfect for this extraordinarily uplifting, fresh and joyful music.

The irrepressibly virtuosic outer movements of Mendelssohn’s B flat quintet offer great contrast to an elegantly playful scherzo and perhaps the highlight of the work, the anguished yet profoundly beautiful funeral march.
