Burkhard Dinstlinger

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Burkhard Dinstlinger (* around 1450 in Bozen or Brixen , † after 1516) was a South Tyrolean organ builder . In addition to South Tyrol, he worked in Lower Bavaria , Saxony and Austria .

Life

Dinstlinger changed his place of residence several times depending on the orders. It can be traced for the first time in 1474 in Nuremberg. From the 1480s he worked in Tyrol and Innsbruck. Lived in Bozen from 1482 to 1486, in Dresden from 1487 to 1488 and from 1489 to 1492 in Lower Bavaria. From 1493 to 1497 he settled as a citizen of Wroclaw , where he owned a house. Wroclaw paid him an annuity from at least 1504 to 1510. He lived in Bautzen from 1499 to 1502 when he built the cathedral organ there. He then moved to Freiberg until 1503 and lived in Wittenberg from 1505 to 1507 and in Guben in Lower Lusatia from 1507 to 1509 . Together with Arnolt Schlick and Hofhaimer, he took part in an organ building conference in Torgau in 1516. There is evidence that his widow lived in the New Hospital in Nuremberg until 1547.

plant

Dinstlinger was one of the most important organ builders on the threshold of modern organ building. He created partly large, two- and three-manual organs in the late Gothic style, which were based on complete principal choirs. The famous Paul Hofhaimer checked his organs in Sterzing and Bozen. Here Dinstlinger was active in the Passau area in 1490. In Saxony carried out some new buildings from before 1498 to 1507.

He had numerous apprentices and journeymen. His students included Lorenz von Nürnberg and Blasius Lehmann , with whom he built the Bautzen cathedral organ around 1500. Nothing of his works has survived.
