Died: ca. 1642

Biography

German composer. Organist, then Kapellmeister, at the Mainz court, he is important primarily for his Representatio (c 1620), an early German oratorio. Based on St Luke's account of John the Baptist's early life, it is marked by its expressive, declamatory solo writing and its varied instrumental interludes.--- Die Musik von Daniel Bollius (ca. 1590 in Hechingen – 1642 in Mainz) ist wohl zu seinen Lebzeiten in Hechingen, Sigmaringen oder in Mainz, wo er jeweils eine Anstellung genoss, zum ersten Mal aufgeführt worden. Die sorgfältigen, korrigierten Abschriften aus einem wahrscheinlich von Daniel Sartorius zusammengetragenen Bestand deuten auf eine weitere Pflege seiner Werke im 17. Jahrhundert an der Elisabethschule in Wrocław (Breslau). (a.d.Vorwort d."Ausgewählten Werke von M.Fuerst)
