| Description |
Deutsch: Am Cembalo ist Johann Adam Reincken, zu der Zeit Organist an der Katharinenkirche im seidenen Hausrock und mit einem dunkelhäutiger Pagen in einer weltgewandten Attitüde dargestellt, die seinem sozialen Status eigentlich nicht entsprach. Vermutlich ist er Auftraggeber des Bildes. Ihm gegenüber sitzt vermutlich mit dem Notenblatt Johann Theile (1646-1724), Kapellmeister an verschiedenen norddeutschen Höfen war und Komponist der ersten in Hamburg aufgeführten Oper. Das Notenblatt hat einen Kanon über den Psalm 133,1: Siehe, wie fein und lieblich ist es, wenn Brüder einträchtig beieinander wohnen
English: The picture shows Dietrich Buxtehude playing a viol, Johann Adam Reincken at the harpsichord, and an unidentified person singing (possibly Johann Philipp Förtsch, singer and composer at the Hamburg opera). Johann Theile definitely is not pictured on this painting - the recent discovery of a portrait of Theile from a contemporary music print shows a different person. The singer in the painting has often been erroneously identified as Buxtehude. Nowadays it is assumed to be a self-portrait of the painter.
