One piece in [[D-Lr mus.ant.pract. K.N. 209]] is headed by the currently unsolved initials '''"H.M.T."'''.

== Attributions ==
Several theories as to the identity of "H.M.T." have been made, but none have gained widespread approval. It was theorized to be the south German composer [[Michael Tonsor]]<ref>Junghans, Wilhelm. ''Lüneburg eine Pflegstätte kirchlicher Musik''. Aus dem Ostern 1870 herausgegebenen Programm des Johanneums zu Lun̈eburg abgedruckt. 33.</ref>. The musicologist [[Fritz Dietrich]] wrote that it may be a distortion of "F.T." (=[[Franz Tunder]]) and "H.S.M." (=[[Heinrich Scheidemann]]), two initials which appear in this manuscript<ref>Brieg, Werner. ''Die Orgelwerke von Heinrich Scheidemann''. Archiv für Musikwissenschaft. Wiesbaden: Franz Steiner Verlag, 1967. 56.</ref>.

Despite these, the initials remain unsolved; in ''Repertorium Orgelmusik'' the initials are left unattributed<ref>Beckmann, Klaus. ''Repertorium Orgelmusik''. New York: Schott, 2001.</ref>.
