Johann Nicolaus (or Nikolaus) Hanff (1665-1711/1712) was a German organist and composer. He wasborn in Wechmar, Thuringia, and was active in Hamburg, Eutin and Schleswig.

Life

Hanff was baptized on September 26, 1664 in Gossel by Arnstadt, Thüringen.

Hanff's music teacher is not known. In 1668, he went to Hamburg. One of his students was Johann Mattheson.

At the end of August 1711, Hanff was named the organist at the Schleswig cathedral after the death of Peter Scheidemann.

Hanff likely passed away around 1711, as Johann Balthasar Elsner was appointed as his successor.

Organ Works

The organ works by Hanff are preserved in various manuscripts copied by Johann Gottfried Walther.

The first edition of Wär Gott nicht mit uns diese Zeit was in Choralvorspiele alter Meister, ... edited by Karl Straube and published by C.F. Peters in 1907. The source of this edition (likely also a J.G. Walther copy) has been lost, it was held in the university library in Königsberg (now Kaliningrad, Russia).

Analysis

Helft mir Gottes Güte preisen in D-B Mus.ms. 22541/2

Klaus Beckmann[2]

Klaus Beckmann stated that Hanff's surviving choral works are oriented in the formal style of the simple choral works by Dietrich Buxtehude, but Hanff arrives at interesting different conclusions by using a high level of linear and harmonic thoughts to produce colorful and expressive musical sentences.
