Samuel Besler Citharae Davidicae 1620 Ps CL
Samuel Besler (Brzeg 15 December 1574 - 19 July 1625) was a German-Polish composer. He was cantor at St. Bernhardinus, Breslau, in 1602, then rector of the Gymnasium from 1605. As with Jakob Meiland in the generation before him, and Melchior Vulpius in his own generation, his St. Matthew Passion follows the model of Johann Walter's Lutheran historia, but with more elaborate choral numbers.
