      About Gottfried August Homilius

      Gottfried August Homilius (1714-1785) was a prominent German composer, cantor, and organist, widely regarded as one of the most significant church composers of the generation following Johann Sebastian Bach. Born in Rosenthal, Saxony, to a Lutheran pastor, Homilius began his musical journey at the Annenschule in Dresden before studying under the tutelage of Bach in Leipzig. His compositions, which include passions, cantatas, and motets, are notable for their emotional depth and are a prime example of the empfindsamer style, of which he was the leading exponent. Homilius' works, though somewhat overlooked in modern times, were highly praised by his contemporaries for their quality and spiritual resonance. His legacy endures through his choral and organ compositions, which continue to captivate audiences with their profound beauty and technical mastery.
