Yet his music is well worth a hearing for its own sake; it was not for nothing that the Emperor Leopold I made Fux his court-composer and music-director. On this disc we show Fux in more intimate mood, with a selection of works for chamber ensemble, harpsichord and clavichord, the latter performed by Michael Thomas on a clavichord built by himself. The Partita a Tre opens with an Ouverture in the French.
Yet his music is well worth remembering for its own sake; it was not for nothing that the Emperor Leopold I of Austria made Fux his Court Composer and Music Director. But to begin at the beginning; Fux was born of peasant stock at Hirtenfeld in Eastern Styria, Austria, about 1660. Little is known of his youth, except that he became a student at Graz University when he was about twenty.

Johann Joseph Fux (German: ; c. 1660 – 13 February 1741) was an Austrian composer, music theorist and pedagogue of the late Baroque era. He is most famous as the author of Gradus ad Parnassum, a treatise on counterpoint, which has become the single most influential book on the Palestrinian style of Renaissance polyphony. Almost all modern courses on Renaissance counterpoint, a mainstay of college music curricula, are indebted in some degree to this work by Fux.
