No-one seems to have mentioned the Robert Fuchs Op. 102 quintet.
Longer than 10mins.
I've only read it through once, but it seemed musically
interesting. The 2nd movement scherzo in particular was a lot of fun.
I've heard it on the radio, so it must be recorded.

I wrote down that the part said Copyright 1919 by Adolf Robitschek, AR
5402. I forgot to write down who publishes it now. Um, here's our library
