"The masterpiece of the German composer in the hands of 5 outstanding musicians: Noémi Tiercet (violin) Marie-Louise de Jong (viola), Wouter Vercruysse (cello), Bram Decroix (double bass) and Sara Vujadinovic (piano). This masterful music inspired by nature finds a suitable setting with the Culture Chapel Odulphus located on the Scheldt. With the support of the Flemish Government. Throughout the centuries, artists have often had an eye for the beauty of nature. Numerous works of art and pieces of music are devoted to it. Far away from the evil world, verses were written, leafy bushes painted and babbling brooks turned into music. Two song composers who often plunged through nature with a sob and a tear and were inspired by the scents and colors around them were Franz Schubert and Robert Schumann (1810 - 1856). Every now and then Schubert went out with his friend the baritone singer Johann Vogl (1786 - 1840). On one of these trips, Schubert felt very happy, which was remarkable because he was mostly depressed. However, not now; the sun was shining, the scents were intoxicating and nature showed its splendor. Reason for Schubert to write a masterpiece: the Trout Quintet D.667 (1819). He wrote this piano quintet in A for the following instrumentation: piano, violin, viola, cello and double bass. The five-part quintet earns its popularity in particular from the fourth movement in which six variations on the song Die Forelle can be heard. In Die Forelle (which Schubert had already written in 1817) a trout swims happily splashing through the water, unaware that a fisherman will soon catch it."
