Quintet for Piano and Winds (Beethoven)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Quintet in E flat for Piano and Winds, Op. 16, was written by Ludwig van Beethoven in 1796. It was inspired by Mozart's work, K. 452, which is likewise in E flat and has the same scoring.

The piece is scored for piano, oboe, clarinet, horn, and bassoon. It is in three movements:

  • I. Grave - Allegro ma non troppo
  • II. Andante cantabile
  • III. Rondo: Allegro ma non troppo

Performance of all three movements together should take around 26 minutes.
