Johann-Markus Oestreich
Johann-Markus Oestreich (* 1738 in Oberbimbach ; † 1833 ibid) was a German organ builder of the Baroque and Classicism periods , who mainly built one- and two-manual organs in the Fulda region , in Franconia , Thuringia and Westphalia . He himself signed with "Johannes Oestreich". He was the most important representative of the organ builder family Oestreich , which worked for five generations.
Life
His ancestors were Michael Oestreich, who was born in Kämmerzell around 1650 and died in Oberbimbach in 1717, his grandfather Conrad Oestreich, who was born in Kämmerzell in 1681 and also died in Oberbimbach in 1737, and his father Jost (Jodocus) Oestreich (1715–1790), who As the first organ builder of the clan appeared from 1745 at the latest.
In 1762 Johann-Markus married Margarete Hosenfeld († 1769). This marriage had four children: Eva Elisabeth (* 1763), Johann Georg (* 1764; died early), Anna Maria (* 1766) and Elisabeth (* 1766). In his second marriage, Oestreich was married to Agnes Schmitt (* 1746 in Oberbimbach), with whom he had the following children: Johann Georg (* 1770, † 1858), Valtin (* 1772), Johann Adam (* 1776, † 1865), Maria Barbara (* 1778), Elisabeth (* 1780), Kaspar (* 1782), Anna Regina (* 1784), Anna Katharina (* 1787) and Johann Adam (* 1792).
Oestreich lived and worked mainly in Oberbimbach. In the 1800s he stayed in Westphalia for a few years when, as a result of the secularization of the Principality of Fulda, the orders declined. Then he returned to the Fulda region.
plant
The organs of Oestreich are characterized by a solid construction. Characteristic are the wide prospectuses with up to 15 pipe fields. The five-part middle field presents the positive, which is followed on both sides by the divided main work with harp fields. The pedals are set up behind. Philipp Ernst Wegmann is presumed to have an influence . The principals sound less mild, but rather a bit bitter and “rustic”. Typical for Oestreich is the combination of Gedackt, gamba and transverse flute in the eight-foot position.
Organs (largely) preserved by Johann-Markus Oestreich are in the Floher Church in Floh-Seligenthal (1789), in the Protestant churches in Nieder-Moos (1791) and Stadtlengsfeld (1793), in the Erlöserkirche Detmold (1796), in the Evangelical Church Fraurombach (1799), in St. Jakobus d. Ä. in Bremen (Geisa) (around 1800) and in St. Cosmas and Damian in Wenigenlupnitz (1809).
