Full biography Georg Bohm
Georg Böhm (1661-1733) was a German Baroque composer and organist who made significant contributions to keyboard music during his time. He is known for his innovative development of the chorale partita, which is a set of variations on a Lutheran chorale melody. This genre was later developed by other notable Baroque composers such as J.S. Bach.
Böhm was born in Thuringia and later studied in Hamburg and Lüneburg. He worked as an organist and composer in several German cities, including Hamburg, Halle, and Lüneburg. He was highly regarded as an organist and was known for his technical skill and improvisation abilities.
Böhm's catalog includes numerous works for organ, vocal music, and instrumental music, such as sonatas for violin and harpsichord. He also wrote numerous cantatas and sacred songs , but he is chiefly remembered for his contributions to keyboard music.
Böhm's influence on J.S. Bach's music has been widely documented, and it is believed that Bach may have studied with Böhm during his teenage years at Lüneburg. Böhm's music was characterized by its ornate, melodic lines and intricate harmonies, and he played an important role in the development of Baroque music in Germany.
Today, Georg Böhm's music is still performed and recorded by keyboardists and other musicians. His contributions to the development of the chorale partita and the keyboard music of the Baroque period continue to be celebrated and studied by music scholars and enthusiasts.
