Composers of the Week Bohm, Bruhns and Buxtehude

on BBC Radio 3

Georg Bohm , Nicolaus Bruhns and Dietrich Buxtehude were renowned throughout 17th-century Germany as organists and composers. All three cast an influence upon Bach, who tramped 200 miles to hear Buxtehude play, was a friend of Bohm, and knew Bruhns as the virtuoso who could play organ and violin simultaneously. This week's programmes explore the composers' keyboard, chamber and church music, and their relationships both with the world they lived in and their famous successor.
