Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, Schubert’s Trout Quintet (Site)
Sunday March 30, 2025, 5:00 pm - 6:30 pm
Schubert’s “Trout” Quintet not only demonstrates his genius for melody and lyricism, but also features a distinct combination of instruments: only one violin and the addition of double bass. The richness of the low strings can also be heard in Mozart’s Adagio and Fugue, which deepens the string quartet’s tonal range.
