@BambosNeophytou Some Hungarians and Czechs have the tendency to take K516 as no.4 because of the numerical sequence of Kochel numbers, but chronologically it should be no.3.

K515, K516 were composed in April and May, 1787.

K406 is really K516b and it was an arrangement of wind octet K388 by Mozart at the end of 1788.

As you might know, there are many confusions (and even gaps) in Kochel's catalogue numbers.

I can't believe it is the piece by mozart....the first 3 movement are not the mozart usually style, but very very beautiful

What is Quint N3?

[montfortlamaury]

String Quintett number 3 , of course . They are five of them on the stage .

[comic4relief]

I just thought maybe the 'N3' was some sort of unfamiliar notation, such as a Russian cataloging system. Or, maybe he (the Russian user) had misspelled or... Also, I have noticed a fair number of typos and misnomers in video titles. Win081 usually does pretty well, however.

[win081]

@comic4relief No matter Russian or not, it should be no.3 if you follow the chronological order.

I am pretty open and I would certainly appreciate if you could tell me any "typos" or "misnomers" that I made.

[Rephrat]

never heard something like this,the voice of heaven coming from Brainin violin.

[telephilia]

It is thought by many that Mozart greatest achievements are in his operas, piano concerti and string quintets. This work is one of the most noted examples of the latter. The finale is a grand dance that could spin on for ever without every tiring!

[comic4relief]

What about songs, symphonies, sonatas, serenades... Have you listened to the Kegelstatt Trio? Clarinet Quintet?... Those are cool too.

[telephilia]

All that music is very cool. All I'm saying is that those are the genres in which he achieved the most distinctive and consistent excellence - that set a standard, if you will. The symphonies and keyboard sonatas, while fine, aren't up to the level of Beethoven's and receive competition from the best of Haydn. The Clarinet Quintet (and Concerto for that matter) aren't a collection or genre but unique works and indeed perfect.

[comic4relief]

There are different ways of looking at it. The concerto for clarinet is in the concerto 'genre'. A really awesome performance of, say, the Prague Symphony is at least up there with anyone, if not better. I suppose it's partly subjective too. Beethoven does it for some while others are enamored by Mozart. Some of Beethoven's symphonies are perhaps of greater epic significance in history.

[comic4relief]

...but then Mozart has Die Zauberflote, mysterious and beautiful, folksy and cosmic all at the same time. Anyway, I don't see any real use in trying to hold Mozart and Beethoven up side-by-side to weigh them as if on a scale. At present anyway, I'm a Mozart fan myself, hardly alone in feeling that, as far as general compositional quality and cultural applicability, Mozart is yet to be surpassed; and it'll take a lot more than glibly stringing together a few idioms to convince me otherwise.

And no offense to our Russian host here, as he might be fond of Tchaikovsky.
