Only a hundred piano quintets

[Richard Barrett]

Here's one I made earlier (part of it anyway)

[edashtav]

Hummel op 87
William Wordsworth (with Trout instrumentation) op 65 c. 1959
Kenneth Leighton c. 1958
Kenneth Harding on a folk tune (something like Hobedd o' Hilion)
Frank Bridge c. 1906
Boris Tchaikovsky's wonderful 1962 Pno 5-tet.
Arensky's masterful op. 51.

So... who finished it, Richard Barrett?

[gradus]

I have been seeking out as many piano quintets (piano and strings) as I can find.

So far I have found only about sixty of them, produced by fifty-four composers:

Of piano quartets there must exist, I estimate, around double that number - something like two hundred.

And the count of string quartets will probably be several thousand.

I prefer the sound of a piano quintet, so I wonder what is the reason for these differences?

Welcome back Sydney.

Deryck Cooke I think.

But then there's also Xenakis (Akea), Walter Zimmermann Schatten der Ideen 4 "De Umbris idearum", Gloria Coates, Bryn Harrison, Sofia Gubaidulina, that I can think of offhand and which haven't already been mentioned as far as I know.

Think I'll have a listen to the Suk, Ed's Boris Tchaik recommendation, and RB's .

Some good stuff for a snowy afternoon and evening.

Might be worth seeking out piano concerto transcriptions (if you're really keen!) For instance, something like:

Haydn: Piano Concerto in F Major, Hob. XVIII:3 (Edition for Piano and String Quartet)

"Written in or around 1765, the delightful first concerto is ideally suited for playing at home, for the relatively undemanding part for piano (or harpsichord) is accompanied merely by a string quartet. Additional parts for a larger string section are available."

https://www.amazon.com/Haydn-Piano-Concerto-String-Quartet/dp/B00008D12K

Does this mean that Haydn also invented the piano quartet (etc.)?

... I think we've had a thread on this before.



... a thread started by ahinton :

...which I started by mentioning the one by Schmitt, which seems not to feature on the OP's list; I cited an upload of it which is no longer available on YouTube but one can now find there the following:

Well worth getting to know!

[edashtav]

Louis Spohr created two Piano Quintets
Op 53 in C minir is an arrangement of his Pno and Wind Quintet op 52. Both were written in 1821, 21 years before Schumann's masterpiece, so LS can claim to be the father of the Romantic Pno 5-tet.
The later Spohr work is op 150 in D. Written in the same year as Schumann's : 1842, but f.p. in 1846.

Other composers: E.Toch, G.Martucci, Franz Reizenstein.
