At the same time, the Quintet's style is thoroughly individual, notably in it's choice of rich harmonies. Providing a marked contrast to Frank Martin's filigree, pared-down early style, CÃ©sar Franck's profuse, monumental Piano Quintet in F Minor (1879) is typical of the Franco-Belgian composer's late output. All of Franck's characteristics seem to blend together in this work which he wrote at the age of 57: Wagnerian chromatic harmonies, dramatic developments similar to those we know from his symphonic poems and oratorios, and a polyphonic musical thinking \"in organ registers\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"206","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":50560885915944,"sku":"426008553527","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/3833\/7576\/files\/4207008-3141514.jpg?v=1763984173","url":"https:\/\/waterloorecords.com\/products\/franck-martin-piano-quintets-cd-426008553527","provider":"Waterloo Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
