Extra Information | The Breitkopf parts mistakenly give the key as "A major", but the first movement begins and ends in F♯ minor and the finale begins in F♯ minor and ends in F♯ major (and the work is rightly known as his quintet in F-sharp minor.) Also, the slow movement (in B) makes more sense related to a F-sharp tonality than a A major one (... not that, in 1906, that would have been noticeably surprising one way or the other.) |
