Features: Paul Hindemith's Quintet was performed in New York in July 1952. To his surprise, the New York Critics' Circle awarded the Best Chamber Music Award of that performance season to this work. On January 17, 1953, Paul Hindemith's wife, Gertrud, humorously wrote to Schott Company: "The Quintet won the award."
