Samuel Scheidt (baptized November 3, 1587 – March 24, 1653) was a German composer, organist and teacher of the early Baroque era. Samuel Scheidt published 4 collections entitled Ludi Musici between 1621 & 1627, whereas only the first publication (from which the present program is taken) survives complete. Scheidt continues to be the most significant of the early North German instrumental composers.

Scheidt’s Ludi Musici – of which only the first of four collections from between 1621 and 1627 survives complete – … is a mouth-wateringly diverse and inventive mixture of dance, canzona and variation, distilled from the fount of English genres as they had become disseminated. These are works which brim over with character and nonchalantly brilliant craftsmanship.

Recording in Colegiata del Castillo de Cardona (Cataluña), Spain, 01/1995.-
