Volume 31 contains, among other works, the Piano Quartet, which was enthusiastically received by the critics in Rheinberger's time: The themes are noble, with significant content, the motivic development is rich and interesting, above all free from anything resembling a mould ... and such a healthy musical wind blows through the entire work that I believe I am not mistaken if I forsee for this work a great success. This is how a contemporary critic reviewed the work. Indeed, op. 38 proceeded to become the most successful of Rheinberger's chamber music works during his lifetime. The Sextet op. 191b is an effective arrangement of his Piano Trio No. 4 op. 191, for flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, horn and piano. All works are also available in separate editions.

This arrangement expands the repertoire for horn trio and in particular provides a companion work to Brahms's Horn Trio in E flat major, Op. 40. Sopranos will find it an inviting addition to their recital repertoire, and the inclusion of an alternative part for cello in place of horn extends the work's availability to piano trios. The available versions of Strauss's Four Last Songs hitherto comprise the original, for soprano and orchestra, and the reduction for soprano and piano by Max Wolff. For this new arrangement, the use of the violin and horn seemed natural, not least with respect to the soloistic nature of the principal parts in the orchestral score. This combination allows the arrangement to be faithful to the depth and complexity of the original whilst emphasising the intimacy afforded by chamber music.
