Life
Nothing is known about Hesse's origin. In 1733 he succeeded Augustin Schetelig city cantor and music director in Eutin. He also had the office of court organist and cantor. It is possible that under Adolph Friedrich , Hesse also directed the court orchestra of the Prince Diocese of Lübeck , for which neither a conductor nor a concertmaster is attested.
