Georg Melchior Hoffmann (c. 1679 – 6 October 1715) was a Baroque composer who was influential as the leader at the Collegium Musicum in Leipzig.

Simultaneously he joined Georg Philipp Telemann at the Collegium Musicum in Leipzig[2] and acted as the organization's copyist.

[3] Hoffmann succeeded Telemann as director of the Collegium Musicum in 1705, a position that did not end until Hoffman's death ten years later.

[2] He accepted a position as the organist at the Liebfrauenkirche at Halle in the spring of 1714, but resigned July 12 of that year having never served in that capacity.

[8] Kyrie–Gloria Masses: Sanctuses: Magnificats and church cantatas: Arias and Operas: Cantatas (at least in part based on operas): Concerto: Trio sonata: Joshua Rifkin has identified Hoffman's style as having "freshness and charm" while noting the "occasional melodic angularity".
