Famous Piano Trios, Quartets, Quintets, and Sextets?

[scherzo123]

Hi, for high school, I was thinking of learning some piano chamber music so I can play with some of the string orchestra members. These are the composers I prefer: Mozart, Beethoven, Schumann, Brahms, Dvorak, and Debussy. Any suggestions of famous and beautiful piano trio, quartet, quintet, or sextet movements from these great composers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

LOL. I was predicting that 49410enrique would post first. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll read and hear it tomorrow. Right now I'm listening to the Brahms Piano Quartet Op.60 (Mvt.3). Thanks 49410enrique, helpful as always  .

lol we're setting the standard/bar real low now i see. i think i just get lucky here and there. my shinanigans are nothing special. but you're super nice, so thanks man  

@ OP- yes the brahms is fantastic. i was page turner for that thing last spring at a big chamber orchestra concert the local symphony does each year, the piece is a giant! super difficult on it's own let alone putting it together with the other parts.  btw check out imslp there' a very good scan (or was last i checked) of a solo piano transcription for it.  

PS

awesome
should link to playlist style for i iii and iii

you'll need a damn fine flute player (fine= talent. talent = can play the flute; not fine=talent=hot. though in many cases it's  appropriate and probably better than the former)

There are several Beethoven Piano Trios. The Ghost and the Archduke are probably the best known, but the Op 1 set are good if you like your Beethoven early.

I strongly recommend Leo Ornsteinīs Piano Quintet. It is one of his most accesible works, and is truly beautiful.

Hopefully is on your level; it is also on of my favorite works.
