作曲家について
Johann Kuhnau
A composer, organist, and music theorist of the Baroque period. On account of his comprehensive education he is regarded as a polymath who, along with his compositional output, made a name for himself as a jurist and author. In addition to his numerous works for liturgical use, including cantatas and masses, his volumes of keyboard music are of particular significance. He rejected the use of operatic elements in church music, as are found in works of his competitor Georg Philipp Telemann, and during his lifetime endeavored to separate the styles.
