Quartet for Flute and Strings in D Major, K. 285
Mozart wanted to find more lucrative work when these flute quartets were commissioned but he still gave them his full attention creating a beautiful flute solo that rivals any in the canon.
Sonata for Violin and Piano
This sonata veers from previous works of this form because Poulenc did not particularly like the sound of a solo violin. Instead there is an equal balance between instruments compared to many other sonatas.
Quartet for Piano and Strings in A Major, Op. 26
The piano quartet was still a relatively new ensemble of musicians in Brahms’ day and his second Piano Quartet is massive in scope. The first movement is filled with memorable melodies and the adagio is quintessential Romanticism.
