Schale, Christian Friedrich (1713 - 1800)
(b Brandenburg, 10 March 1713; d Berlin, 2 March 1800). German composer.
He was a pupil of the organist Christian Rolle, then studied law for a brief period at Halle University (c1732). From 1735 he was a member of the orchestra of Prince Heinrich of Prussia until he was appointed to the royal Kapelle of Frederick the Great in Berlin as cellist and chamber musician (1741).
He was also second organist (to Johann Philipp Sack) at Berlin Cathedral, and became cathedral organist when Sack died in 1763. He was one of the first members of Sack’s Musikübende Gesellschaft, the earliest amateur concert society in Berlin (founded in 1749), and also conducted another group called the Musikalische Assemblee (made up of members of the royal Kapelle). Following Sack’s death, he merged the two groups; in 1781 Schale and the singer G.C. Concialini used this orchestra to present a series of amateur concerts in Berlin.
Schale composed in a variety of genres, but few of his works were published. His music is often contrapuntal, and his keyboard works are occasionally quite virtuoso. His lieder are in the folklike style of the first Berlin lied school.
(Thanks to Pietro and Grove for the notes.)
