Key: G major.
It was in Madrid in 1771 that two composers simultaneously 'discovered' and invented the string quartet as new musical genre: Luigi Boccherini and Gaetano Brunetti. The string quartets by the Italian composer Antonio Capuzzi, on the other hand, probably are the only ones which were all created in Italy. Like Mozart's contributions to this genre, the Quintet in G major is scored for two violins, two violas and violoncello. Written in concertante form, the work lets all players have their musical say, offering both soloistic virtuoso figures and numerous melodic solos. The work shows Capuzzi's personal chamber music style, a real five-part setting which sometimes seems orchestral. A valuable addition to the quintet repertoire for strings – good playing and listening entertainment guaranteed!
Écrite sous forme concertante, l’œuvre témoigne du style personnel de Capuzzi dans sa musique de chambre : c’est une vraie composition à cinq voix aux accents parfois orchestraux. Un enrichissement du répertoire pour quintette pour les cordes – le plaisir pour les musiciens et l’auditoire est garanti !
