Biography

• Born Feb 15th 1571
• Died Feb 15th 1621

One of the most significant German composers of his time, whose Musae Sioniae, a collection of over 1200 settings of Lutheran chorales, is a valuable source for hymnology. A three-volume treatise by Praetorius, Syntagma Musicum, has significant information about the compositional style and instruments of his day. ~ Mary K. Scanlan, All Music Guide
