The chamber music works are among Hindemith's most successful instrumental works of the 1920s. At the world premiere of 'Chamber Music No. 1', the audience even demanded a repetition of the third and fourth movements. But the title of the series of works consisting of seven compositions altogether is misleading: The individual pieces rather have concertante soloistic features. No. 1 is characterised by 'instruments', like a can filled with sand and a siren, as well as the rich use of percussion. The scores are based on Vol. IV/2 (PHA 402) of the Hindemith Complete Edition, edited by Giselher Schubert.
