Description
Give way, my contemporaries! – Make room, give way! A man whose herald I must be – gladly will be, even if I ought to – bear fasces1 before him. For unrecognized by you, Grace and Greatness pass away, and Apollo’s pupil sighs at a century whose adornment he is.' This is the emphatic commencement of the article on Joseph Aloys Schmittbaur by Carl Ludwig Junker, who included him among the twenty composers of his pamphlet Zwanzig Komponisten published in Bern in 1776. Some 250 years later, there is still good reason to concur with the author’s judgement: the works of the Baden Kapellmeister, himself a modest, retiring man, are hidden treasures waiting to be unearthed.
