The Music of Johann Hermann Schein
Bob Worth
Schein was a year younger than Heinrich Schütz, and was close friends with the more famous composer.
Though Schein (unlike Schütz) never went south to bask firsthand in Italian music (not to say the weather, the scenery
and the food),  he kept a close watch on the budding Baroque style and incorporated many of its techniques and traits in his works.  A predecessor of Bach as Cantor at Leipzig's Thomaskirche, Schein wrote plenty of wonderful sacred music;
​but he was very interested in singing, playing and writing secular music as well, and in fact his publications alternate between sacred and secular collections.  Bob Worth will lead a gentle stroll through a selection of this terrific composer's works in a variety of styles, moods, and instrumentations.
