The Complete String Quartets (7) / Overture for The Flying Dutchman / “Militärminimax”
~ Release by Paul Hindemith; Kocian Quartet (see all versions of this release, 1 available)
Annotation
Quartets numbered 0—6 (not 1—7 as usual)
“Thirty years later Hindemith refused to allow this work {op. 2 in C major (1915)} to be listed among his string quartets. Out of respect for his decision, we have allocated the number ‘0’to this quartet.” {Sic booklet page 4}
