Matthias Andreas Bauck (born May 27, 1765 in Hamburg ; † April 6, 1835 in Lübeck ) was a German music teacher and church musician .

Live and act

Bauck came to Lübeck around 1785 to become a student of the Marian organist Johann Wilhelm Cornelius von Königslöw . He initially earned his living as a brewer and piano teacher. In 1800 he became organist at the Reformed Church , which at that time was still in front of the Holsten Gate in Lübeck-St. Lorenz found where the parish had bought its first organ in 1799 under Pastor Johannes Geibel . In 1802 he succeeded the late Johann Georg Witthauer as organist and foreman of the Jakobikirche .

For years he was considered the only one who taught music theory and counterpoint in Lübeck , and thus acquired a large number of students. He wrote several musical textbooks and in 1821 published the chorale book for the new edition of the Lübeck hymn book from 1790.
