"Johann Heinrich Rolle (23 December 1716 - 29 December 1785) was a German baroque composer.
Rolle was born in Quedlinburg. His father was a musician in Magdeburg, and in his early years Rolle served there as an organist while studying law. In 1741 he became a chamber musician in the court of the Prussian King Frederick II, before returning to Magdeburg in 1746 to take up the position of organist at St John´s Church. Rolle´s father died in 1751, and Rolle succeeded him as music director at the Altstädtisches Gymnasium, a secondary school. He died in Magdeburg, aged 69." - (en.wikipedia.org 11.11.2019)
