This piece premiered in 2018 in Lincoln, Nebraska, played by pianist Paul Barnes and the Chiara Quartet. “Meditative...striking...touchingly played by Barnes and the quintet, 'Annunciation' is a romantic, late-period Glass masterwork.”-Lincoln Journal Star

“Because I only need four parts to express everything” – Haydn is said to have replied thus when asked why he had not composed a string quintet. Mozart saw things differently. He applied himself to this genre six times, even giving important parts to the two violas. Following Volume II, which contains the three most often played quintets, we now warmly recommend Mozart's first Quintet K. 174 to ensembles, before in 2008 the 3rd and final volume will be published. The editors were able to refer to the autograph, which is once again accessible. It shows Mozart's intensive compositional work, resulting in the fact that he composed the minuet and finale of the work a second time. The first version of both movements is included in the appendix of our edition, enabling insightful comparisons.

With this Volume III publication of K593 and 614, all of Mozart's string quintets are now available in Henle Urtext. Their edition corrects several widespread misreadings of the musical text and also draws on the first printings as important sources. The first printing of the Finale from the Quintet in D major K. 593 diverges greatly from the autograph. The editors consider it probable that the print version was authorized, which is the reason why Henle has published both versions of the movement (to enable a better comparison it is given as an ossia version above the musical text). In the Preface and Comments the editors shed light on the source situation to these two immortal works written in the last two years of Mozart's life.

On May 18, 2006, a manuscript was auctioned at Sotheby's that made chamber musicians prick up their ears. Shortly before his death, Max Bruch composed three works for strings which he was no longer able to have published. Following his death, the two quintets and the octet were believed to have gone missing. Whilst the other two works have since re-appeared, the Quintet in E-flat Major could not be found. It was only later that the well-preserved copy surfaced in Sotheby's catalog. Following a scholarly evaluation, we are now proud to presenta first edition of this charming late Romantic work to the music world.

Written for his colleague Janos Starker, David Baker's Quintet (also called the “Two Cello Quintet”) was premiered at Indiana University's Eva Janzer Memorial Concert. The Bloomington press wrote of the performance: “a romantic work...eclectic and conservative, but in this instance (Baker's) writing had a special sense of urgency that grabbed one's attention and kept it focused on the piece.”
