Radstadt/Salzburg - 1537 Salzburg)
became the chamber organist of Archduke Sigismund of the
Tyrol after his studies. When Sigismund died, his
successor Maximilian I took the entire court chapel into
his service. Even at that point, it was common to append
such praise as ''der kuenstlichest in allen landen''
(the most artistic of all the earth) or
''Qui in universa Germania secundum non habet''
(He has no equal in all of Germany) to his name. The illustration shows
Hofhaimer as the organist of Maximilian I in the
Emperor's ''Triumphzug'' (Triumphal Procession), a
work of art that the ruler, who was particularly
concerned about the reputation of his dynasty, had
ordered. (E. Stadler)
