Beethoven: String Quintets Op. 29 and 104, Fugue Op. 137
Chamber musicians from the WDR Sinfonieorchester Köln play music that spans Beethoven's compositional career. The two String Quintets op. 29 and 104 date from 1801 and 1817 respectively, the latter a reworking of his early Piano Trio op. 1/3. The Fugue op. 137, also dating from 1817, rounds out the album in virtuosic style.
