String Quintet - (Parts)

Known more as a famous composer's daughter and as the assistant of Benjamin Britten, Imogen Holst was a serious creator in her own right, as this deftly constructed, almost impressionistic, quintet demonstrates. The 14-minute work begins with two short rustic movements before the mood changes to a substantial and moving set of variations based on the final theme written in the sketchbook of her father, Gustav Holst.
