Happy 226th birthday, Franz Schubert! His iconic “Trout” Quintet, also known as the “Piano Quintet in A Major, D. 667,” is a chamber music piece that was composed in 1819. The quintet is named as such because it features a theme from Schubert’s song “Die Forelle” (The Trout) in the 4th movement as a theme and variations. Here is one of those variations- featuring some tricky violin acrobatics, all while the viola plays the jaunty theme. This is always such a fun and joyous piece to play!! From a
