I'd guess yes since Peter has heard it. -Dave] I stand corrected--for some reason I remembered it as the Sextet, but it is the Quintet in A minor, and I'm pretty sure I heard it on a Philips LP back in the early 70s. Checking Amazon.com, the quintet is avilable as part of a recently released complete quintets set on Philips by members of the Berlin Philharmonic Octet. Peter Goldstein Juniata College Huntingdon, PA
