Strum and Schubert

With just one extra instrument, the sound of a string quartet, delicate and intimate, is transformed into something altogether different. A string quintet is almost orchestral in feeling, and the texture and color that is possible is so well demonstrated by Montgomery and Schubert in two of their most important compositions.
