Carl Friedrich Küchler was born the son of a Doctor. He enrolled at the Thomasschule in Leipzig on July 13, 1743; studied there from 1743 to 1747, previously (before 1743) already as external; and at Universität Leipzig from 1748. As a Thomaner he was in Choir II from May 17, 1744 (Pentecost) to June 6, 1745 (Pentecost). Although he attended the Thomasschule during J.S. Bach's tenure, it is not known if he actually studied with him. After his studies, he was school owner in Leipzig from 1751. |
