quintets
Groups of five
Quintets are groups of five, most often in music.
A quintet is a composition for five performers or the group itself: a string quintet, a jazz quintet.
The word extends to any set of five: The starting lineup featured a quintet of rookies.
In poetry, a quintet is a five-line stanza.
