Johann Andreas Engelhardt
Johann Andreas Engelhardt (born December 19, 1804 in Lossa (Finne) , † 1866 ) was a German organ builder of the 19th century.
life and work
Engelhardt came from Lossa near Naumburg (Saale) and was influenced by central German organ building in its Saxon-Thuringian form around 1800. Nothing is known about his apprenticeship and journeyman time. Around 1829 he settled in Herzberg am Harz and worked from the Harz to the regions of Braunschweig and Hanover.
Engelhardt created over 100 organs together with his son Gustav Carl Engelhardt (* April 8, 1843, † 1917), of which 20 are largely preserved. As a rule, these are one or two-manual village organs with a limited number of registers . In terms of sound and architecture, his works are located in the transition period from the late baroque , classicism and early romanticism . The dispositions are still largely late baroque, while his competitor Philipp Furtwängler aimed for a progressive sound.
His son Gustav Carl continued his father's workshop until 1880. A three-manual organ from him has been preserved in Heimburg (1871).
