17th century German clavier music presents a capacious stratum of culture of the Baroque period, which is of enormous interest. Frequently it is perceived as an enormous transition to J.S. Bach’s musical legacy, but upon more assiduous examination it turns out that this stratum has its own value, although, obviously, it could not do otherwise than create the footing for the musical culture of the following 18th century. The present article has an overview character and is meant to summate the most important phenomena which could give an overall perception of the chronological order of the formation of clavier genres and forms of the pre-Bach era, about the outstanding composers of clavier music, and of the intersection between various national styles in their heritages.
