About

Two masterpieces of chamber music, Schubert’s Trout Quintet and Mozart’s Piano Quartet in E flat, recorded by three-time Grammy-winning violinist, conductor, and music director Pinchas Zukerman.

Zuckerman has been recognized as a phenomenon for nearly four decades. His musical genius and prodigious technique have long been a marvel to critics and audiences. For this recording he has teamed up with the Zukerman Chamber Players, in distinguished collaboration with guest artists including the Grammy-winning pianist Yefim Bronfman, Jethro Marks (viola), Amanda Forsyth (cello) and Joel Quarrington (double bass).

Schubert’s quintet in A Major, D.667 “The Trout”, was composed in 1819 when Schubert was 22 years old. The piece is known as the Trout because the fourth movement is a set of variations on Schubert's earlier Lied "Die Forelle" (The Trout).

Mozart’s piano quartet in E-flat major is the piece which established the piano quartet as a winning instrumental combination.
