Erhard Bodenschatz
Erhard Bodenschatz (1576 in
Schulpforta
from 1600 to 1603 and pastor in Groß-Osterhausen/Querfurt from 1608 onwards.
He produced several motets. Among his best known works was the edited motet collection Florilegium Portense, meaning "Schulpforta's anthology". It was published in two volumes in Leipzig in 1618 and 1621 and held 365 motets by 58 composers, giving a good insight into the 17th century choral repertoire in Saxony and Thuringia. Johann Sebastian Bach is known to have been familiar with the work, using it and ordering further copies for the Thomanerchor whilst he was Thomaskantor.
