Adam Falckenhagen (26 April 1697 – 6 October 1754) was a German lutenist and composer of the Baroque period. He was born in Groß-Dölzig, near Leipzig in Saxony, but spent the later part of his life in Bayreuth. He wrote tuneful music which is still played today on lute and guitar. Much of this music survives in the Bavarian State Library, Munich. He received his first musical instruction in the village of Knauthain, the native home of Johann Christian Weyrauch. <a href="https://www.last.fm/mus
