Elan Quintet

Quatuors à cordes Volume 4 numéro 23 et numéro 31

Description

Georges Onslow is best known for a body of chamber music that follows the musical lineage of Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven. A master of the quintet, Onslow offered ensemble variations to musicians, the two presented here being intended for a string quartet and a double bass. The tempestuous Quintet No. 23 in A minor is filled with an almost incessant nervous energy and Schubertian lyricism; the Quintet No. 31 in A major, having reached maturity, is both subtle and elegant, with a brilliant assembly of details such as the walking bass and violin-cello duos.
