Klavierquintett

The Englund piano quintet from 1941 abounds in youthful energy. It could be regarded as a study in advanced contrapuntal technique, complete with imitation, strict canons and fugatos. In keeping with the great Romantic piano quintets, the piano dominates and calls for a player with not only a brilliant technique but also an ability to make the clusters of piano notes tone in with the dynamic level of the strings.
