Samuel Scheidt was one of the most complete composers of his generation.
Organist, he composed sacred music and instrumental music that is at a
crossroads, combining the Lutheran polyphonic tradition and all the
influences of Italian music and the style of Monteverdi. The dances and
fantasies contained in his Ludi Musici (1621) do not avoid this mixture
of styles, being both the legacy of late-Renaissance models and the
reflection of the new virtuosity initiated by the Italians. These pieces
are indeed intended for viola da gamba, which still enjoyed
considerable success in Germany at that time«Κουράστηκα να ακούω πως έτσι γίνονται τα πράγματα στην Ελλάδα-Το εμπόριο επιρροής είναι έγκλημα» Λάουρα Κοβέσι , Ευρωπαία Εισαγγελέας
