Johann Schultz (1582-1653) spent his working life in northern Germany; from 1605 until his death he was court organist at the Braunschweig-Lüneburg court at Dannenberg.  In addition to the 1617 print he published a collection containing instrumental music, the Musicalische Lustgarten (Lüneburg, 1622), as well as a book of motets in from three to sixteen parts (1621).
