@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.

@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.

[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.

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

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

[comic4relief]

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

...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.
