Artist
Volckmar Leisring , in the sources also Volkmar or Leissringk or Leisringius (born around 1588 in Gebstedt , died 1637 in Buchfart) was a German cantor, composer and Protestant pastor. From 1606 Leisring studied theology in Jena . His friends and fellow students included Johann Matthäus Meyfart and Caspar von Teutleben . During his time in Jena, Leisring had a celebratory speech printed under the title Corona Musices , i.e. “To praise music”. In it, Meyfart praises him as a musician who is excellent in both theory and practice. After printing various individual works, Leisring published his collection of 5- to 8-part choral movements for church services under the title Cymbalum Davidicum and a musicological work Breviarium Artis Musices . In 1612 he becomes rector, cantor and town clerk inSchkölen near Weißenfels. It was probably during these years that he had contact with the composers Melchior Vulpius and Johann Hermann Schein . In 1618 he becomes pastor of Nohra in Erfurt and finally in 1629 in Buchfart . Worn by worries about daily bread in the turmoil of the Thirty Years' War , probably no more compositions were created during the parish office.
