Friedrich Eickhoff

Friedrich Hermann Eickhoff, erroneously also Friedrich Heinrich Eickhoff (1807 - 1886) was a German teacher, organist and song editor. Until today he is known through the Lieder Geh aus, mein Herz, und suche Freud and Ihr Kinderlein, kommet, which he created by combining sacred texts (by Paul Gerhardt and Christoph von Schmid) with spring melodies by August Harder and Johann Abraham Peter Schulz.
