Johann Gottfried Walther, the cousin of Johann Sebastian Bach, was a German music theorist, organist, composer and lexicographer. He studied with Johann Bernhard Bach and Johann Heinrich Buttstett. He is famous for his organ variations and arrangements of Italian concertos.

So, here an attempt to get some chorale variations into the spotlight.
