Johann Friedrich Fasch was born on April 15, 1688, in Buttelstedt near Weimar. He joined the Court Chapel of the Duke of Weissenfels as a choir boy. Here, his teacher was Johann Philipp Krieger, a musician of wide culture well versed in the Venetian, Bolognese, Neapolitan, Florentine and Roman schools, acquainted with the musicians of old Bohemia and a pupil of Pasquini.How tall was vivaldi Vivaldi catholic Pachelbel Vivaldi music

His influence on young Fasch was of considerable importance.
No less decisive was that of Johann Kuhnau at the Thomas-Schule in Leipzig where we find him in 1701. Some years later he founded at the University of that city a Collegium Musicum, the birth of which caused a grave conflict between the young composer and his old master.
He then traveled a little throughout Germany and Central Europe eager to widen his knowledge, and composing all the while.
In 1722 he became Kapellmeister at the court of Zerbst. It was in that same year, so tradition has it, that he refused to compete against Johann Sebastian Bach
