August Kühnel (1645–c. 1700) was a German composer and accomplished viola da gamba performer. Born on the 3rd August 1645 in Delmenhorst, Kühnel was the son of the Mecklenburg chamber musician Samuel Kühnel. After an education in Güstrow and France, in 1661, at the age of sixteen, he was appointed Violdigambist in the court orchestra of Maurice, Duke of Saxe-Zeitz, a position he held until 1681. After the duke's death in 1682, Kühnel went to England to study. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music
