Artist
Johann Abraham Peter Schulz (March 31, 1747, in Lüneburg-June 10, 1800 in Schwedt) was a German musician and composer. Today he is best known as the composer of the melody for Matthias Claudius' poem "Der Mond ist aufgegangen", as well as of the Christmas carols "Ihr Kinderlein kommet" and "Alle Jahre wieder" Schulz attended the Michaelis School from 1757 to 1759 and then the Johanneum in Lüneburg from 1759 to 1764. In 1765, he was the student of the Berlin composer Johann Kirnberger. He served as the conductor of the French Theatre in Berlin from 1776 to 1780 and from 1780 to 1787 he was the Kapellmeister of Prince Henry in Rheinsberg. Schulz then went on to serve as Court Kapellmeister in Copenhagen from 1787 to 1795 before returning to Berlin. Schulz wrote operas, stage music, oratorios, and cantatas, as well as piano pieces and folk songs. Furthermore, he also wrote articles on music theory for Johann Georg Sulzer's (1720-1779) Allgemeinen Theorie der schönen Künste in four volumes.
