Dieterich Buxtehude: Organ Legend

Born around 1637 in Helsingborg, Dieterich Buxtehude was a renowned Danish-German organist and composer. Serving at St. Mary's Church in Lübeck, he represented the North German Organ School and established the famous "Abendmusik" concert series. His virtuoso keyboard compositions and sacred vocal works profoundly influenced a young Johann Sebastian Bach, who famously walked to Lübeck to study his craft.
