Michael Maul (born 1978) is a German musicologist noted for his work on Johann Sebastian Bach. He has been on the research staff of the Bach-Archiv Leipzig since 2002.

Bach discoveries

Maul's work attracted international attention with a discovery he made in 2005 in Weimar's Duchess Anna Amalia Library. This was a hitherto overlooked manuscript containing Alles mit Gott und nichts ohn' ihn, BWV 1127, the first previously unknown vocal work by Bach to be found in 70 years.[1][2]

Further research in Weimar identified other previously unknown manuscripts in Bach's hand, this time of music by other composers, throwing light on his musical education.[3]
