During the Vienna classical period, innumerable quartets, but very few quintets were written. Haydn did not produce a single quintet, nor does Beethoven appear to have been particularly amused by composing a cinque. Although he did write a couple of string quintets, they belong amongst his "juvenilia", and are seldom performed today. He also composed one piece for piano and four wind instruments, largely plagiarised from Mozart.
Wolfgang Mozart, however, appears to have taken a different stand on five-part music and its tonal potential. Gourmets of chamber music set even greater store by his string quintets than by his string quartets. His clarinet quintet in A major K 581 is generally considered one of his loveliest pieces. In April 1784 Mozart wrote to his father in Salzburg of the quintet K 452 in E flat major for piano and wind instruments that it was his best composition. To date.
