Description: Published in 1697 and 1699, these two collections of keyboard works make clear that Krieger, praised by Handel, no less, for the skill of his counterpoint and the inventive power of his organ music, deserves to rank with Fischer, Kuhnau and Pachelbel as one of the outstanding German keyboard composers of the generation before Bach. 2 CDs.
