About "String Quintet No. 2 in G Major, Op. 77, B. 49 : Dvořák: String Quintet No. 2 in G Major, Op. 77, B. 49: II. Scherzo. Allegro vivace – Trio. L'istesso tempo, Quasi allegretto" by Boston Symphony Chamber Players

Dvořák's Scherzo is a playful whirl, but the Trio's quasi-allegretto reveals a wistful undercurrent. The Boston ensemble captures the duality: a village dance that suddenly pauses, as if remembering a distant farewell. Vivacity and nostalgia trade places in a breath.
