Hieronymus Praetorius

Hieronymus Praetorius 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, German organist and composer (d. 1629)}
