German composer (1560-1629) · Germany · On the map · Musicians · Died at 68
Hieronymus Praetorius the Elder was a Northern German composer and organist of the late Renaissance and early Baroque whose polychoral motets in 8 to 20 voices are intricate and vividly expressive. Some of his organ music survives in the Visby Orgel-Tabulatur, which dates from 1611.
Hieronymus Praetorius is read about 10 times a day, in 10 languages.
