'one might check out 2' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.

'quintet and quartet where' is the wordplay.
'quintet' becomes 'V' (Roman numeral for 5 - quintet is a group of five).
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'quartet' becomes 'IV' (Roman numerals for four).
'where' becomes 'aldi' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'v'+'iv'+'aldi'='VIVALDI'

Can you help me to learn more?
