String Quintets 1 and 2

Product Description The Takacs Quartet is quite simply one of the world's finest and most distinguished chamber ensembles. Here they collaborate with Britain's greatest living viola player, Lawrence Power, who with his long association with The Nash Ensemble among others has also proved himself a remarkable chamber musician. Brahms's String Quintets (Opp.88 and 111) both represent landmarks of the Romantic chamber music repertoire, and demonstrate the composer's utter mastery of the genre.
