Johann Christian Heinrich Rinck (18 February 1770 – 23 July 1846) was a German composer and organist.
Grandstudent
He studied with Johann Christian Kittel, a pupil of Johann Sebastian Bach.... He composed prolifically, and an organ primer of his enjoyed wide popularity. - Wikipedia
Johann Christian Heinrich Rinck
Had quite a splendid name, I think,
And so I checked him out on line –
It seems, in life he did just fine,
And though they’re easy to resist
His published works make quite a list.
His organ primer had success
Which wasn’t a surprise, I’d guess,
Because he had a claim to feature:
Bach had been his teacher’s teacher.
