Person

Bartholomäus Aich

Bartholomäus Aich was a South-German organist and composer in the 17th century. His only surviving work is the musical-dramatic festival play Armamentarium comicum amoris et honoris (The Comic Armoury of Love and Honour), written on the occasion of the wedding of Count Maximilian Willibald of Waldburg-Wolfegg and Clara Isabella Princess of Aarschot and Arenberg, that took place in Lindau on 6 December 1648. Armamentarium combined the Jesuit theatre tradition with the Italian monody of the early Baroque period and was performed by pupils of the Lindau Jesuit college on 8 December 1648.
