Quartet + quintet (5)

I believe the answer is:

nonet

(Other definitions for nonet that I've seen before include "Musical composition -- tonne (anag)" , "Piece for nine payers" , "Musical work for a set number of performers" , "Composition for nine instruments" , "Multi-figure composition" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
