Schubert’s ‘Cello’ Quintet

Schubert – String Quintet in C major

RSNO String Quintet

Franz Schubert certainly knew how to write a tune, but even by his standards the C major String Quintet is something special. There’s a reason why this piece is a regular choice on Desert Island Discs: it traces the composer’s journey from blackest despair to radiant happiness, and at its heart is one of the most sublimely beautiful slow movements in all music. Join five RSNO musicians for what will be a truly memorable event.
