Weichenberger certainly must have had a certain reputation. In the New Groves, Wolfgang Botticher writes that he was held in high esteem “although he was only an amateur”. The more recent perspective does not follow this disparagement, with good reason. Considering the beautifuI works by these composers the idea of dilettantism is far from the truth. We find first class compositions. Weichenberger’ s compositions touched especially because of their beauty and naturalness.
