Historical context
BuxWV 164 is a composition for organ by Dietrich Buxtehude, one of his later works from around 1700. This piece, while specific details about its form are not widely documented, likely contributes to Buxtehude's rich output of organ music during the late Baroque period. Its first publication in 1875-76 provides insight into the revival of interest in his works well after his lifetime.
