V5 – Quintet for Vibraphone and String Quartet (1995) by Lior Navok is a 17-minute work in five movements, exploring two main themes that transform across contrasting atmospheres. The mellow resonance of the vibraphone blends with the string quartet to create a misty, haunting sound world, predominantly dreamy and ethereal, yet punctuated by energetic and humorous moments in the second and fourth movements. The piece offers a rare and compelling addition to the contemporary repertoire for vibraphone and strings.
