"The Musical Party" by Johannes Voorhout. Reincken is playing the harpsichord.

Jan Adams Reincken (?-1722) (also known as Jan Adam or Johann Adam) was a German organist and composer.

Life

The year of Reincken's birth is not known. It has been theorized to be 1623 or 1628, but, if true, this would mean that several events in his life were unusually late, such as the beginning of his musical study. There is evidence of someone named "Jan Reinse" being baptized in Deventer on 10 December 1643. "This date, too, is problematic, but it is at least consistent with the baptismal records of Adam Reincken's other children in 1639, 1640 and 1641,"[1]. He died in Hamburg in 1722.

Works

The first edition of Reincken's two chorale fantasias was published in 1967 as Corpus of Early Keyboard Music vol. 16, edited by Willi Apel.

Only the Allemande and Sarabande carry the inscription: "J.A. Reinke", but there can be no doubt that the entire suite is by Reincken, especially since the Courante is a variation of the Allemande.
