String quintet in major C (Schubert)

The String quintet in major C, D. 956 (COp posth. 163) is a work of Franz Schubert.

It was shortly after made up its last symphony during the summer 1828, two months before the death of the musician. It was created in 1850 and was published in 1853.

The traditional Quintette (in the line of Mozart) associates with the four string instruments Quatuor, a second viola. That of Schubert is characterized by the presence of a second Violoncelle, balancing the whole of a more serious tonality.

Work includes/understands four movements and its execution lasts a little less than one hour. The adagio is one of the moments strongest and moving by all the history of the music.
