He studied law at Strasbourg (1641) and travelled widely before taking employment as kantor first at Kiel (1648) then at Lüneburg (1651). Under his supervision the first passions were performed at Lüneburg.[2] He collaborated with the poet Johann Rist for many years including on settings of Rist's Das friedewünschende Teutschland for the Peace of Westphalia.
