About Johann Hoffmann
Johann Hoffmann 1770-1814 Little is known about the life and works of the Viennese mandolin player and composer Johann Hoffmann. His works were only re-disseminated in the mid-twentieth century; the originals are still to be found in Viennese libraries. They all involve the mandolin, and require great virtuosity. Their treatment of the instrument, its arpeggios and multiple stops is highly idiomatic. Around 1800, the six-course mandolin experienced a renaissance in cultivated Viennese circles
