Butz-Musikverlag publishes Buxtehude studies

Butz-Musikverlag has published, with the Dieterich-Buxtehude-Gesellschaft, the first volume of Buxtehude studies. This new series will offer the latest research about Dieterich Buxtehude, composer and organist of the Marienkirche in Lübeck and the most important baroque composer before Bach. A new volume is planned for release every two years.

Scholars, musicians, and scientists including Ton Koopman, Matthias Schneider, Christoph Wolff, Albert Clement, and Hans Fagius will present new information about Buxtehude’s life, performance practices, liturgical life, the “Stylus phantasticus,” and more. The first volume (in German) of the Buxtehude studies can be ordered directly through the Butz-Musikverlag or the OHS.
