Ernst Theodor Amadeus Hoffmann - Quintet in C minor [Digital] CL19

Here is the first record of Hoffmann's works. Its publication in Germany caused a sensation; because, if everyone knows Hoffmann, by his writings as much as by the masterpiece of Offenbach, only a few initiates could suspect that his musical compositions had the importance and the quality of what we present here.
