Sweelinck, Jan Pieterszoon

born April 1562, Amsterdam, Neth.
died Oct. 16, 1621, Amsterdam

Dutch composer.

As organist at Amsterdam's Old Church from с 1580, he became famous for his improvisations. Aside from occasional trips to other cities for organ consultation, he remained there his entire life, teaching Samuel Scheidt and other members of the North German school of organists (which would ultimately influence Johann Sebastian Bach). Many of his vocal works were published in Psalms of David (1604–14) and Cantiones sacrae (1619); he also published many keyboard fantasias, toccatas, and variation sets.

▪ Dutch composer
born April 1562, Amsterdam
died Oct. 16, 1621, Amsterdam
 Dutch organist and composer, one of the principal figures in the development of organ music before J.S. Bach.

      Sweelinck succeeded his father as organist of the Oude Kerk (Old Church), Amsterdam, in about 1580 and remained in this post until his death. Apparently he never left the Low Countries and traveled only to Rotterdam and Antwerp.

      Although he composed much sacred and secular vocal music in the polyphonic traditions of France and the Netherlands (including the Chansons, the Cantiones sacrae, and settings of the Psalms), Sweelinck was chiefly known as an organist and keyboard (keyboard instrument) composer. His keyboard music includes chorale variations, toccatas and fantasias showing the influence of the Venetian organ school, and sets of variations on secular tunes.

      Sweelinck's fantasias are among the first organ fugues in which a single theme is subjected to augmentation, diminution, and changes of rhythm and combined with counterthemes. His secular variations drew upon popular tunes of several European countries; an example is the set of variations on Mein junges Leben hat ein End'.

      It is possible that Sweelinck met the English composers John Bull and Peter Philips during their visits to the Low Countries; Bull's “Fantasia on a Theme of Sweelinck” was the tribute of one keyboard virtuoso to another. Sweelinck's keyboard playing was widely known. His organ pupils included the German composers Samuel Scheidt and Heinrich Scheidemann; Scheidemann's pupil J.A. Reinken handed on this tradition of organ playing to the Danish organist Dietrich Buxtehude. Many outstanding organists of the following generation, particularly in northern Germany, were pupils of Sweelinck; Handel and Bach were influenced by this northern German school of organ playing.
