Opus post. 163 D 956. Parts only.No music lover can remain untouched by the emotional quality of this work composed in Schubert's last year. The monumental weight of the outer movements the intimate lyricism of the'Adagio' as well as the unusual timbre ensure the uniqueness of this quintet. An additional cello which takes on an essential melodic role joins the classical string quartet. The editor of this Urtext edition Egon Voss notonly does justice to the difficult source situation; with new and convincing solutions for difficult page turns he also takes into account the demands of musical practice.
