About Johann Samuel Schroeter
Johann Samuel Schröter (also spelled Schroeter/Schröter) was an eighteenth-century German-language keyboard musician and composer closely associated with London musical life in the 1770s and 1780s. Sources disagree on his exact birth details, but they consistently place his career after a family musical upbringing and early activity linked to Leipzig before his move to London, where he remained and later married Rebecca Scott in 1775 at St Martin-in-the-Fields. He is best known through published keyboard music, including a set of six keyboard sonatas issued as Op.1 (surviving today in digitised engraved prints) and a set of six keyboard concertos issued as Op.3, reflecting his role in the late-eighteenth-century market for harpsichord/fortepiano repertory.
