Sanuel Burckhard (Bach's Pupil)

Born: ???
Died: ???

Samuel Burckhard is not listed in the Thomasschule in Leipzig enrollment. However, he was most probably a Thomaner, because in 1730 J.S. Bach wrote in a report “usable for 1st Choir (figural music)”. It is not known if he actually studied with J.S. Bach.
