Quintet edit

Is the 1927-28 quintet the same as the "Wolgaquintett" mentioned as composed(?) and published in 1931 ("Quintett (Wolgaquintett), für Pfte., 2V., Vla., Vcllo. [1931.] ... Wien, Doblinger." - see Hofmeisters Monatsberichte) ? Schissel | Sound the Note! 23:38, 3 June 2013 (UTC)Reply

An article on the SWR2 website (Südwestrundfunk) refers to the quintet as being completed in 1928 and published in 1931.
You can find it here (in German):

and with a digital download of the Volga Quintet here:

Maria or Marie? edit

Both "Maria" and "Marie" are used here more than once.

Works list edit

A list of musical works in alphabetical order is pretty useless, especially one that alphabetizes titles beginning with the article "The" (i.e., the German Das / Der / Die).

A more useful works list would almost certainly be chronological, and, equally important, separate works by genres (e.g., songs, piano music, chamber music, orchestral works) for starters. I am not familiar enough with this composer, however, to do so myself.
