It's hard to explain why I didn't like this CD. Much of the first movement of the Trout sounded to me just like a bunch of notes not going anywhere, not really connected much with each other. The first movement of the quintet was better, but lifeless, mechanical to my ear.I'm almost embarrassed I don't like this CD. I listened to the first movement of each piece, and that's all I could take. I'm not an expert, but I do listen to a lot of classical music, and I do like Schubert and Mozart. Many performances of classical music I find quite moving. These two didn't move me at all.
