Piston’s chamber music is less well served than his symphonies. The Piano Quintet is not only one of his finest works but one of the great quintets of the twentieth century, with a master’s understanding of the medium and the musical material most effective and natural to it. It is a gripping and powerful piece, and the Flute Quartet and Piano Quartet are also well worth getting to know when the performances here are so sympathetic and the recording very good.
