| Sumario: | The article focuses on the distribution and influence of Italian and French music in German-speaking countries during the early 18th century, particularly through the publishing house of Estienne Roger and his successors. It highlights the role of Johann Konrad Peetz, a bookseller in Regensburg, who offered a range of musical prints, including those published by Roger and Michel-Charles Le Cène. The text discusses the significance of publisher numbers in cataloging and ordering music, the geographical reach of these publications, and the impact on the musical culture of the time, including connections to prominent composers like Johann Sebastian Bach. The findings suggest that access to these prints facilitated the assimilation of diverse musical styles in Germany.
