Heinrich Scheidemann is viewed as one of the cofounders
of the northern German organ school, one
who combined Sweelinck‘s style with that of the
northern German baroque tradition. He is considered
to be one of the most significant composers of early
seventeenth-century organ music.
His works consist primarily of chorale preludes,
organ chorales, Magnificats, sacred songs, Kyries and
dance movements.
Joseph Kelemen was born in Budapest in 1957. After
completing his studies at the Franz Liszt University
of Music in his home city, at the Schola Cantorum
Basiliensis and at the Academy of Arts in Bremen, he
began dedicating himself to historical performance
practice on the organ. Today, he is an authority on
German organ music of the seventeenth century as
well as the music of Johann Sebastian Bach.
