Johann Gottfried Vierling

Johann Gottfried Vierling (January 25, 1750 – November 22, 1813) was a German organist and composer.

In 1768 he succeeded his teacher Johann Nikolaus Tischer (1707–74) as organist in Schmalkalden.

Vierling composed several collections of easy organ pieces, a four-voice organ chorale book (1790) and cembalo music such as two trios, one quartet and six sonatas.

He also published a handbook on the art of basso continuo, "Allgemein faßlicher Unterricht im Generalbaß".

Among Vierling's students was Johann Christian Friedrich Hæffner, who became a famous musician in Sweden.
