Here are three varied quintets, selected from two concerts in the 2002–03 Philadelphia Orchestra Chamber Music Series at the Kimmel Center's Perelman Theater.

From the performance of 1 December 2002, guitarist Allen Krantz and the Wister Quartet (made up entirely of Fabulous Philadelphians) perform Boccherini's "Fandango" Guitar Quintet, and pianist Anna Polonsky collaborates with four of the Orchestra's renowned string players on Schubert's "Trout" Quintet.

Finally, the Philadelphia Orchestra's new Music Director, Christoph Eschenbach, joins Associate Concertmaster Michael Ludwig and three of his colleagues to perform Shostakovich's Piano Quintet in G minor at a concert on 9 March 2003.
