| Added by magataganm, 07 Mar 2012 Dietrich Buxtehude was a German-Danish organist and composer of the Baroque period. The bulk of Buxtehude's work consists of vocal music, which covers a wide variety of styles and organ works, which concentrate mostly on chorale settings and large-scale sectional forms. The nineteen organ praeludia (or preludes) form the core of Buxtehude's work and are ultimately considered his most important contributions to the music literature of the seventeenth century. They are sectional compositions that alternate between free improvisation and strict counterpoint. They are usually either fugues or pieces written in fugal manner; all make heavy use of pedal and are idiomatic to the organ. Buxtehude inspired Bach who visited him around 1705 and walked about 300 km just to see him play. Furthermore, Händel visited him in 1703, too. Buxtehude played the organ in the "Marienkirche" (Church of Mary:-) in Lübeck, Northern-Germany. Sheet central : | Toccata en Fa majeur (4 sheet music) | | |||
