Franz Anton Hoffmeister (1754 – 1812) was a German composer and music publisher of the Classical period. Prominent in Hoffmeister’s extensive oeuvre are works for the flute, includ ing more than 25 concertos as well as chamber works with the flute in a leading role. Many of these works would have been composed with Vienna’s growing number of amateur musicians in mind, for whom the flute was one of the most favoured instruments. Hoffmeister also composed at least eight operas, over 50 symphonies, numerous concertos (including an often-played concerto for the viola), a large amount of string chamber music, piano music and several collections of songs.
