Composed in 1879, the Piano Quintet in F minor by César Franck belongs to the fruitful final period of his creative life. It heralded the start of an impressive sequence of late orchestral and chamber pieces which set the seal upon his career. The Piano Quintet was premiered in Paris on 17 January 1880 by the Marsick Quartet with Saint-Saëns at the piano. During the last quarter of the 19th century and into the 1920s, it was Gabriel Fauré who made the most substantial and lasting contribution to French chamber music. Fauré's Piano Quintet no.1 renews the powerful concentration of his earlier Piano Quartets in it's outer movements, while also looking forward to the composer's later works in the sophisticated phrasing and chromaticism of it's extended Adagio. Vibrant and spirited, it may be counted among the composer's finest creations.
