About Melchior Schildt
Melchior Schildt (born 1592 or 1593, Hanover – 18 May 1667) was a German composer and organist of the North German Organ School. He descended from a long line of church musicians who had served the town of Hanover for over 125 years. He studied with Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck from 1609 to 1612, and in 1629 replaced his recently deceased father as organist at the Marktkirche, Hanover where he remained until his death. The Sämtliche Orgelwerke (Complete organ works) edited by Klaus Beckmann is published by Schott (Mainz 2003. ISMN: M 001-13431-6) as vol. 5 of the series Meister der norddeutschen Orgelschule. It contains the following: * Herr Christ, der einig Gottessohn * Herzlich lieb hab' ich dich, o mein Herr * Magnificat, primi modi * Praeambulum g-Moll * Praeambulum G-Dur * Allein Gott in der Höh' sei Ehr'.
