The most common ensemble for three performers are piano trio with piano, violin and cello. For four performers there are the string quartet (2 violins, viola and cello), piano quartet (piano, and three string instruments) or woodwind quartet. Quintets have even ranging instruments according to composers' settings.
A string quintet has five string instruments, either as 2 violins, 2 violas and one violoncello (as the Mozart string quintets, K. 174, K. 515, K. 516, K. 516b (406), K. 593 & K. 614 or Brahms' 2 string quintets, op. 88 & op. 111) or as 2 violins, one viola and 2 violoncellos (as the numerous Boccherini string quintets). However there is another category with a standard string quartet and a double bass, sometimes referred to as a string quintet.
