String Quintet is a genre of chamber music that is written for five string instruments: two violins, two violas, and a cello. It is typically written in a four-movement structure, with each movement featuring a different combination of instruments. The genre originated in the 18th century and has been popularized by composers such as Mozart, Beethoven, and Brahms. It is often performed in a concert setting, but can also be heard in a variety of other contexts, such as weddings and other special occasions.
