This video is a priceless treasure! I didn't even know it existed. The music is some of the finest that Mozart ever composed and the performance is fantastic. Thank you for posting. Greetings from New York.

@ilkinond I hope you are being sarcastic and are not as dumb as you sound. Kind of ironic too given that Mozart was hardly "upper class" himself...

@ilkinond I am late to this fancy dress party, I am afraid. I grew up with little money in a small town that nonetheless supported the fine arts. I grew up with little money, yet my mother somehow scraped together the funds to buy me a great violin; to drive me to concerts; to buy me the recordings I desired; and to eventually send me to the conservatory of my choice.
Taste is a matter of respect, passion, knowledge, and artistic inclination. You seem to have none of these characteristics.

@ilkinond Out of interest....if you really are as upper class (and very ignorant with it!) as you claim, then why are you here on YouTube? Surely the last thing you'd want to do is 'slum it with the grimy classes'?



Does anyone know why this quintet is sometimes called Quintet No. 4, and other times Quintet No. 3?

@stevehartsviola 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 in Kochel's catalogue numbers.
