Born in Erfurt, Johann Christian Kittel was one of the last pupils of J. S. Bach in Leipzig, then organist in Langensalza before returning to his native town, at the Barfüßerkirche and from 1762 at the Predigerkirche. A renowned teacher of Rinck and Michael Gotthard Fischer, he passed on the Bach tradition, notably through his method "Der angehende praktische Organist" (1801-1808).
