'''Klaus Beckmann''' (1935-) is a German organist and musicologist. He has published editions of early organ music for Breitkopf & Härtel<ref>[https://obis.oberlin.edu/record=b2585134~S4 obis.oberlin.edu]</ref>, Forum music<ref>[https://obis.oberlin.edu/record=b1859730~S4 obis.oberlin.edu]</ref>, and Edition Schott<ref>[https://obis.oberlin.edu/record=b2343194~S4 obis.oberlin.edu]</ref>.

	~~From 2003~~ to ~~2015~~, ~~Beckmann~~, ~~along with~~ his ~~colleague~~ [[~~Claudia Schumacher~~]], ~~edited~~ the 36-volume series [[Meister der Norddeutschen Orgelschule]].		Beckmann's contributions to early organ music are countless and unmistakable, and his editorial style, analysis, and re-attributions have reshaped the landscape of this repertoire. He was instrumental in developing a new approach to playing early organ music in which the surviving sources are examined more critically in order to arrive at a more original music instead of being lead astray from later additions and mistakes, showing a deeply-ingrained knowledge of this music. In 1963, he discovered that one section of the Toccata in D Minor by [[Dietrich Buxtehude]] should be notated in 3/4 time instead of 4/4 time. His research into this music goes beyond simple stylistic analysis to reach striking new conclusions that increase our understanding and help us reach new solutions regarding performance practice. In one instance, his re-attribution of a piece to [[Hieronymus Praetorius III]] was based on thorough research over decades, including not only stylistic analysis of the organ piece itself, but also information about the surviving source of the piece and new discoveries of epitaphs for members of the Praetorius family. This research manifests itself in his editions of music from the [[North German Organ School]]. Through his 36-volume series [[Meister der Norddeutschen Orgelschule]], published from 2003-2015 and edited in conjunction with [[Claudia Schumacher]], Beckmann brought the works of countless composers with surviving outputs large and small to performing organists. In addition to scores, he has published many monumental works of literature such as the two-volume [[Die Norddeutsche Schule (book)\|Die Norddeutsche Schule]] and the staggering [[Repertorium Orgelmusik]], a bio-bibliography of all organ music.

	Feeling a lack of suitable literature for school and church choirs, Klaus Beckmann got his first experience creating editions while working with original sources while preparing an edition of chansons and passions for choir by composers including Sermisy, Passerau, Costeley, Scandello and Beber.		Feeling a lack of suitable literature for school and church choirs, Klaus Beckmann got his first experience creating editions while working with original sources while preparing an edition of chansons and passions for choir by composers including Sermisy, Passerau, Costeley, Scandello and Beber.

	Klaus Beckmann claims that he was the first person to note that one section of the Toccata in D Minor (BuxWV 155) by [[Dietrich Buxtehude]] should have been marked in 3/4 time instead of 4/4 time, this discovery taking place on October 13, 1969. He also identified the organists [[Johann Praetorius]] and [[Hieronymus Praetorius III]] as composers of surviving works based on stylistic grounds and historical evidence, and he connected the piece in the [[Pelplin Tablatures]] labled ''Ewaldt'' to [[Ewald Hintz]] a composer in Gdanśk.
