Johann Georg Hesse was born the son of Stephan Hesse (master tailor in Leipzig). He enrolled at the Thomasschule in Leipzig on May 16, 1722; studied there from 1722 to 1729; and at Universität Leipzig from 1726. He obtained his Magister degree in Wittenberg in 1732. Although he attended the Thomasschule during J.S. Bach's tenure, it is not known if he actually studied with him. After his studies, he worked as military chaplain (Feldprediger) from 1732; informant in Eilenburg, Pastor in Gadegast from 1742 and Oehna from 1751.
