| Ajoutée par magataganm, 24 Nov 2019 Johann Steffens/Stephani (1560-1616) was a German composer and organist of the North German organ school. Steffens's father, Heinrich Steffens, was a member of the Itzehoer Council and had his son trained costly due to his musical genius. Johann Steffens studied among others with an organ maker, presumably Hans Scherer the Elder in Hamburg. In 1589, the governor of Schleswig-Holstein, Heinrich Rantzau, recommended Johann Steffens to the Lüneburg Council for an organist position at the Lamberti Church. As the Duchess Dorothea of Braunschweig-Lüneburg had better relations with the Council and suggested someone else, he was initially not accepted. However, when the organist post at St. Johannis became free, a new opportunity arose. After initially provisional assumption of office in 1593, he was finally in 1595 the position. Von Steffens' high reputation is demonstrated by the fact that he participated in the famous review of the new organ of Gröningen together with 54 of the most respected German organ masters. At times, he taught so many students that the church leaders were worried about preserving the good condition of the organ. Steffens remained in Lüneburg until his death. Steffens' secular vocal compositions are influenced by Hans Leo Haßler and Italian madrigalists . He published in 1599 a two-part Madrigal book, the pieces are mostly lost. 1619 was followed by another book of secular Madrigalia and dance songs. The lyrics deal with sociability, wine, song and love of nature. Furthermore, various sacred vocal works are handed down. Many of them are eight voices and testify to a sovereign mastery of the polyphonic movement. In contrast to the motets, Steffens's preserved organ works (three chorales) are comparatively simple. Furthermore, six Paduanen and four Gaillarden are handed down. Source: Wikipedia (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann_Steffens).
