What instrument did Mozart add to make the string quartet to the string quintet?
Mozart's six quintets add a second viola to make up the group of five; these are called "viola quintets" for this reason, not because the viola has any greater role in the music. Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Brahms, and most other composers followed this lead. A quintet that adds another cello is called a cello quintet. The classical era composer Boccherini, a cellist himself, wrote over 100 of these, but he is the exception. There are some excellent examples in this genre, however, especially Schubert's Quintet in C major D.956.
