Johann Schop (c.1590-1667)

German violinist and composer who led the musicians of the city of Hamburg. He wrote hymn tunes for Johann Rist's poems. Bach later used his melody Werde munter in Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring.

Start with these

The easiest Schop on the shelf, in order. Nothing here is graded and nobody is ranked: the shelf simply puts the pieces that ask less of your hands before the ones that ask more.

Ermuntre dich (hymn tune, 'Break Forth, O Beauteous Heavenly Light') E♭ major · 1 min

How the reader works

Each score opens as engraved notation you can read from the stand, and it plays: hear the piece first, then slow it down and loop the bar that is not working. There is nothing to install and no account to make. When you want paper, print it.

Every file is MusicXML, so MuseScore, Sibelius, Finale and Dorico open them too.

Where to go next

If you are learning Schop rather than only reading, the scale pages cover fingering in every key, the chord pages spell out every chord, and the symbol dictionary explains any mark on the page you do not recognise.
