	Johann Fux - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Johann Joseph Fux (1660 – February 13, 1741) was an Austrian composer, music theorist and pedagogue of the late Baroque era.
		Fux was born to a peasant family in Hirtenfeld in Styria.
		Fux's work repeated some of Diruta's, possibly coincidentally, since he is not known to have had a copy: in any event, Fux presented the idea with a clarity and focus which made it famous as a teaching method.

		Johann Joseph Fux was born in Hirtenfeld, Styria.

	Johann Joseph Fux: a concise biography
		Johann Joseph Fux (1660-1741) is remembered less for his music than for his famous textbook on counterpoint, the Gradus ad Parnassum, Yet his music is well worth remembering for its own sake; it was not for nothing that the Emperor Leopold I made Fux his court-composer and music-director.
		Fux filled the post with distinction, composing and directing many operas and oratorios, as well as dozens of smaller pieces.
		In 1725 Fux published his famous Gradus ad Parnassum, a textbook from which most of the composers of the next generation learnt their counterpoint - indeed Bach himself had a copy in his library.

		The music of Johann Joseph Fux has never sounded as fine as it does on this new CPO disc of sacred works.
		The three Fux Sonatas (K320, K376, and K396) are well placed on the program, and Fux imparts an attractive blend of lyricism and austerity to his music.
		In conclusion, the music of Fux is not essential listening, but the new CPO disc is a marvel of engineering with performances that are entirely top-rate including the sublime contributions from the five vocal soloists.
