Prokofiev’s Quintet Op. 39 features unusual harmonies and irregular rhythms that set the quintet apart as one of his more radical works. Arenky’s Piano Trio in D minor opens with a warm Allegro whose passion and lyricism recall Mendesslohn’s trio of the same key. Its third movement, a tender Elegia, honors the memory of the great cellist Karl Davïdov, with a wistful theme first presented by the cello. Glazunov’s String Quintet opens with the golden tones of a single viola before the other instruments join in to create a lush texture warmed by the addition of a second cello.
