About Johann Fischer (composer)
- Johann Fischer (1646–1716) was a German violinist, keyboardist and composer of the baroque era.
- His name is not to be confused with another composer named Johann Fischer, born in Lübeck and listed by Johannes Moller in Cimbria literata (v.
- I, p.
- 176).
- He is mentioned as a good clavier and violin player, who is said to have especially loved the return of the strings and, in this way, he mainly composed for the violin and also the viola, which he sought to write for in his overtures.
- In any case, his works are of historical interest since they are likely to betray the influence of the then French instrumental music.
