A pupil of Pachelbel, Johann Heinrich Buttstett was organist of the Predigerkirche in Erfurt from 1691 until his death, with the title of town organist. Johann Gottfried Walther was among his pupils. His collection "Musicalische Clavier-Kunst und Vorraths-Kammer" (1713) and his some forty chorales show Pachelbel’s legacy and a knowledge of the North German school; he is also remembered for his theoretical dispute with Mattheson.
