Reimagined: Schumann & Beethoven for Cello Q u i n t e t
When a string quartet and a cellist have the opportunity to collaborate, it is almost always to play the mag- nificent Schubert Quintet in C Major. Not surprisingly, as this monumental work would make it into any dis- cussion of chamber music’s GOAT– greatest of all time. In fact, the Ying Quartet’s ongoing collaboration with cellist, Zuill Bailey has featured many performances of the Schubert Quintet. For this recording project however, we were eager to explore repertoire for cello quintet beyond the Schubert. In our own, new ar- rangement of Schumann’s wonderful Cello Concerto and an 1832 arrange- ment of Beethoven’s well-known masterpiece, the “Kreutzer” Sonata originallyforviolinandpiano,we consider two celebrated works from their original versions and present them here powerfully reimagined for cello quintet.
