Mozart, Mendelssohn, Vaughan Williams
Vaughan Williams's early C minor Piano Quintet, withdrawn in his lifetime and unpublished for decades, joins Mozart's E-flat Piano Quartet, K. 493 and Mendelssohn's Second String Quintet, Op. 87, written two years before his death. Alfred Einstein called the Mozart finale's melody "the purest, most childlike and godlike" ever sung.
