String Quartet No. 5 (1988) by Gloria Coates is a 32-minute work in three movements:

I. Through Time
II. Through Space
III. In the Fifth Dimension

1988 was a time of movement in Europe preceding the fall of the Berlin Wall, but also in Gloria Coates' personal life, moving back to New York and living in two places at once. This unrest can be perceived in the quartet by an uneasy avoidance of reaching musical resolutions; on the other hand, it also keeps its composure alive in its balanced structures. (Gloria Coates)

Commissioned for a concert that was cancelled, String Quartet No. 5 was first performed six years later on March 16, 1995, in a portrait concert of Gloria Coates' music at Gasteig, Munich, in the Claudia Trübsbach Series for the Munich Volkshochschule by the Modern String Quartet.
