Who is Dieterich Buxtehude?

Dieterich Buxtehude ( German: [?di?t???ç b?kst??hu?d?]; born Diderich Hansen Buxtehude, Danish: [?tið???ek ?hæn?sn? pukst??hu?ð?]; c. 1637 – 9 May 1707) was a Danish organist and composer of the Baroque period, whose works are typical of the North German organ school.

Who was Buxtehude in Voorhout?

Dieterich was employed as an organist, first in Helsingborg (1657–1658), and then at Helsingør (1660–1668). St. Mary's in Helsingør is the only church where Buxtehude was employed that still has the organ in its original location. Another person in the same Voorhout painting, once was thought to be Buxtehude.

Where did Buxtehude get his music?

Gustaf Düben 's collection and the so-called Lübeck tablature A373 are the two most important sources for Buxtehude's vocal music. The former includes several autographs, both in German organ tablature and in score. Both collections were probably created during Buxtehude's lifetime and with his permission.

What was Buxtehude's last post?

Buxtehude's last post, from 1668, was at the Marienkirche, Lübeck which had two organs, a large one for big services and a small one for devotionals and funerals. There he s?ded Franz Tunder and followed in many of the footsteps of his predecessor.
