Johannes Albertus (Albert Heinrich) Groneman [Groenemann]
(Cologne, 1711 - The Hague, bur. 1 June 1778)

Dutch composer of German birth. On 15 February 1732 he enrolled at the University of Leiden and soon after appeared as a violin virtuoso. By 1736 he had moved to The Hague, where he became carilloneur (1741) and organist (1743) of the city’s principal church. His career was interrupted for a while by mental illness. Works by him were printed in Amsterdam, London and Paris, and include, in various editions, a set of 12 somewhat virtuoso sonatas for violin and continuo op.1 modelled on Tartini, 6 simpler sonatas for two flutes or violins op.2, and 12 minuets for violin or flute and continuo. #ClassicalMusic
