Buxtehude: Complete Chamber Music

Dietrich Buxtehude (c.1637–1707) was a Danish-German composer and organist. He is recognized for bridging Renaissance and Baroque musical traditions, influencing composers such as J.S. Bach and George Frideric Handel. Born in either Helsingborg, Sweden, or Helsingør, Denmark (the exact location remains uncertain), Buxtehude spent much of his career in Lübeck, Germany, where he served as organist at the Marienkirche (St. Mary's Church) from 1668 until his death. Buxtehude’s style blends intricate counterpoint with an expressive, almost improvisational character, making him one of the most significant figures in early Baroque music. This new recording presents Buxtehude’s complete chamber music output, consisting of two books of Sonatas and several miscellaneous Sonatas. The Sonatas are for one or two violins, viola da gamba and harpsichord. Played by Ensemble Fantasticus, featuring (among others) violinist Rie Kimura and harpsichordist Pieter-Jan Belder.
