Historical context

Work BuxWV 183 is a composition for organ by Dietrich Buxtehude, dating from his later years (c. 1690s). This piece, part of his extensive oeuvre, exemplifies his mastery in contrapuntal techniques and expressive harmonic language. Its first publication was in the late 19th century, around 1875-1876, as part of a broader effort to preserve and disseminate Baroque music.
