Schubert String Quintet - Members of the Vienna Philharmonic

What's it about?

Karl Goldmark: String Quintet in A minor, Op. 9 Franz Schubert: String Quintet in C major, D 956 The string quintet opens up special sonic possibilities within chamber music: it expands the familiar quartet sound without abandoning its intimate form of communication. Especially in the 19th century, this genre became a place of intense musical condensation, where formal clarity and romantic expressiveness combined in a unique way. With works by Karl Goldmark and Franz Schubert, two composers deeply rooted in the Viennese musical tradition, yet shaping it in very different ways, are at the center of the evening. This program will be interpreted by members of the Vienna Philharmonic, who regularly engage in chamber music alongside their orchestral activities. In this ensemble, individual voices meet a common sound culture based on precise listening, creative freedom, and deep musical understanding. An evening for all who wish to experience great romantic chamber music in its full depth, tonal variety, and expressiveness.
