Anna Amalie of Prussia was a princess by birth and, from 1755, abbess of the Protestant Abbey of Quedlinburg, a position she held in the aftermath of the Seven Years’ War. A daughter of King Frederick William I and sister of Frederick II, her dynastic rank gave her the influence and resources to devote herself to the arts and to the governance of the convent.
Music was her main occupation and consolation throughout her life. She studied harpsichord, flute, and violin and pursued theory and harmony with Johann Kirnberger. She composed works in the galant style — notably a sonata for flute and basso continuo (1771) — and assembled a valuable collection of older scores, including pieces by Bach, Palestrina, Handel, Telemann, and C. P. E. Bach.
That collection, preserved in part at the Berlin State Library, is an important legacy for music history and attests to Anna Amalie’s role as a patron and preserver of repertoire. She never married, and her private life inspired controversies and rumors whose truth remains debated by historians.
