Porträt von Michael Praetorius – Kupferstich von 1606, gemeinfrei

Praetorius, Michael

Michael Praetorius was born in Creuzburg around 1571/72 and died in Wolfenbüttel in 1621. The German composer and organist worked at the threshold between the Renaissance and the Baroque. As court chapel master, he shaped musical life in Wolfenbüttel and was connected with other important courts of his time. His sacred vocal works combine the tradition of the Protestant chorale with diverse musical ensembles. With the three-volume Syntagma musicum, he also left an important source on organology and performance practice. His music opens up a vivid access to the sound world around 1600. Recordings make both the festive splendor and the sonic diversity of this extensive body of work perceptible.
