about
Bernhard Dietrich Ludewig (1707–1740) was a German organist and musical copyist active in the Bach circle. Modern cataloguing identifies him both as an organist (noted as serving in Schmölln from 1738) and as a copyist whose handwriting appears in Bach-related manuscript sources. He is listed among the scribes of the celebrated Notebooks for Anna Magdalena Bach (D-B Mus.ms. Bach P 225), where the source documentation assigns specific notebook entries to his hand (identified there as “Anon. Vp”). Sources disagree on the precise day and month of his birth, but they concur on Thonhausen as the birthplace and on his death in Schmölln in 1740.
