Among his published works are vocal music with political character (Lobgesang an die Retter Deutschlands, Kantate für gemischten Chor und Orchester, Sechs Gesänge für Freimaurer), piano music, six String Quartets and two Violin Concertos. Contrary to the wishes of his publisher, Hoffmann decided not to put in print more Symphonies or Concertos but concentrated instead on Duos for Violin and Violoncello, of which ten were published. The excellent quality of Hoffman’s works did not prevent their fall into obscurity.
