Baroque dedicatory letters seek to fmatter the addressee, such as those sent to Duchess Sibylla of Württemberg. This custom was as necessary as it was natural. However, it is remarkable how much Philipp Friedrich Böddecker (*1607, Hagenau in Alsace; †1683, Stuttgart) emphasised the particular musical abilities of the dedicatee in the preface to his Sacra Partitura, published in Strasbourg in 1651.
