Christoph Bernhard was born on 1 January 1628, in Kolberg, Pomerania, and died on 14 November, 1692, in Dresden. He studied in Gdańsk and Warsaw, and by the age of 20 was singing at the electoral court in Dresden under Heinrich Schütz. He then spent a year in Copenhagen to study singing with Agostino Fontana. After his appointment as assistant kapellmeister in Dresden in 1655, Bernhard made two sojourns to Italy to further his musical education. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Christoph+Bernh
