Johann Klemm

Johann Klemm or Klemme (c. 1593–1660) was a German Baroque organist and composer.[1]

Klemm was a pupil of Heinrich Schütz and organist at the Dresden court.[2] As was normal for students to publish the works of their teachers, in 1647, together with Alexander Hering, he published Schütz's Symphoniae sacrae II.
