Initials in K.N. 209

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[1]. 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[2].

Despite these, the initials remain unsolved; in Repertorium Orgelmusik the initials are left unattributed[3].
