Dieterich Buxtehude (1 ene 1637 año – 1 ene 1707 año)

Descripción:

Within Lutheran Germany, Buxtehude's fame was supreme. He received numerous visits and dedications from aspiring musicians, including Handel and Bach, who walked 300mi on foot in the winter of 1705-6 to meet him.

One traditional genre that Bach inherited directly from his Lutheran organist forebears and BUxtehude most directly was teh chorale setting. It could assume many forms, anywhere from a colossal set of improvised or composed variations to a modest Choralvorspiel, or "chorale prelude", a single-stanza setting with which the organist might cue the congregation to sing or provide an accompaniment to silent meditation. 4
