| | Piano Quintet (Schumann) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Like most piano quintets, it is written for piano and string quartet (two violins, viola and cello). | | | The Piano Quintet by Robert Schumann was written in 1842. | | | Before that year, Schumann had completed no chamber music at all with the exception of an early piano quartet (in 1829), but he now concentrated on the genre, writing his three string quartets and the piano quartet in the same year. |

| | Quintet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The piece is scored for violin, viola, cello, bass instead of an additional violin, and piano, unlike the usual arrangement of the piano quintet. | | | In classical instrumental music, any additional instrument (such as a piano, clarinet, oboe, etc.) joined to the usual string quartet (two violins, a viola, and a cello), gives the resulting ensemble its name, such as "piano quintet", "clarinet quintet", etc. A piece of music written for such a group is similarly named. | | | Schubert: piano quintet in A major, D.667 (1819), popularely known as the 'Trout Quintet', based on his Lied "Die Forelle" ("the trout"); this piece in part inspired future efforts in the composition of piano quintets, especially those of Schumann and Dvorak. |

| | Schumann, Brahms: Piano Quintets : Music |
| | Schumann´s Piano Quintet has always been one of his most beloved pieces of chamber music, and Brahms´s was one of his first great musical successes. | | | While it doesn´t quite possess the monumental qualities of his opus 25 and 26 piano quartets, the Brahms quintet is still massively ambitious in its conception, and it seems to combine the drama of his first piano quartet with the lyrical introspection and spaciousness of the second. | | | Quintet For Two Violins, Viola, Cello And Piano In F Minor, Op.34: Andante, Un Poco Adagio. |

| | Composer |
| | As a composer Schumann's gifts are clearly heard in his piano music and in his songs. | | | Later piano music by Schumann includes the Album für die Jugend of 1848, Waldszenen of 1849 and the collected Bunte Blätter and Albumblätter drawn from earlier work. | | | Other important chamber music by Schumann includes three piano trios, three violin sonatas and a number of shorter character-pieces that include the Märchenbilder for viola and piano, collections of Phantasiestücke with alternative instrumentation and the cello and piano Fünf Stücke im Volkston, with other short pieces generally suggesting a literary or otherwise extra-musical programme. |

| | PACM014: Piano Quintet in E flat, Op.44 - Schumann |
| | Of all of his chamber music, the Piano Quintet is perhaps the finest, and shows the composer in brilliant, extrovert mood - fluent, melodic and truly captivating. | | | Schumann (1810-1856) published no chamber music at all prior to 1842, when a sudden outpouring saw all three String Quartets, a Piano Quartet, the Fantasiestüke for String Trio, and this, his only Piano Quintet, all suddenly spring as if from nowhere. | | | The third movement is a 3-minute hurricane of integrated piano and quartet virtuosity. |

| | By age 12 (1821) he was composing comfortably in a wide variety of musical genres, ranging from piano pieces, organ works, and songs to chamber music, string symphonies, concertos, and operas. | | | In 1834 Robert Schumann had founded a new music journal in Leipzig and used his pen to argue for improving musical standards and against the baleful effects of what he perceived as musical Philistinism. | | | The second movement, which Schumann conceived as a somber march with two contrasting episodes, begins with a brooding, minor-key procession that gives way to a dreamy interlude in the major, with rippling triplets accompanying a singing violin melody. |

| | The music is clearly written for the kind of piano found in the Romantic period which, in essence, would have resembled a modern piano capable of a wide range of expression and a full bodied tone. | | | While the strings have a perfect cadence there, the piano creates a Dominant minor 9th which pulls the music back to B flat for bar 79. | | | The left hand of the piano is not always the lowest sound. |

| | The Joachim Raff Society - Piano Quintet |
| | Although Raff wrote a Fantasy for piano and string quartet, the Piano Quintet shares with the Cello Sonata the distinction of being the sole example of its genre in Raff's chamber output. | | | One such chamber master work is Raff's Piano Quintet in a op.107- called by him a "Grand Quintuor" to emphasise the symphonic scale of the work. | | | Despite Raff's symphonic pretensions and its 35 minute length, the Quintet is a model of the best in his chamber music - unendingly melodious, each movement is built on classic principles and the whole work is in perfect proportion, employing and demanding great technical skill without either composer or performer degenerating into mere virtuosity. |
