14Hirschbach (hērsh'-bākh), Hermann. 1812-1888.
15Born in Berlin; went to Leipsic in 1842, and made that city his home. He began his study of music with Birnbach. His career as a musical critic was a short one, for his immoderate, sarcastic and bitter criticisms published in the Musikalisch-kritisches Repertoriums in Leipsic made him many enemies, and he forsook the musical career for one of a mercantile nature. His compositions are many. Among them are thirteen string quartets; two string quintets; two quintets with clarinet and horn; fourteen symphonies; overtures; and two operas, Othello and Das Leben ein Traum.
