Handel harpsichord suite n.7 in G minor
Handel suite played by Ludger Remy

Johann Jakob Froberger (May 18, 1616 – May 7, 1667) was a German Baroque composer, keyboard virtuoso, and organist. He was very well known during his lifetime and modern scholars consider him to be one of the most important keyboard composers before Johann Sebastian Bach. Froberger came from a musical family and his constant striving to be the best that he could be shows a mature consciousness to be living for the service of others, first for his family, then for his community, then church and state. His core philosophy was to be of help for the greater good in music.
