description
Only in the last few years has the music of Gottfried August Homilius (1714-1785) begun to receive recognition for its true value, as the work of one of the most talented and individual composers in the generation after J.S. Bach. Homilius was a pupil of Bach’s at the second church in Leipzig, the Nikolaikirche (Bach was Cantor of church music for the city as a whole, not only St Thomas’s where he was based). Before the age of 30 he became Cantor at the then-new and stunning Frauenkirche in Dresden, with its superb Silbermann organ, much coveted by Bach who had to make do with what he saw as lesser, patched-up old instruments in Leipzig. In fact his entire career was based in Dresden, for in 1755 he moved over the river to the city’s Kreuzkirche, where he took charge of the music until his death 30 years later.
