Misleading information on Samuel Scheidt

The opening section claims "The Danzig city council gave scholarships to Samuel Scheidt and him to study with Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck in Amsterdam from 1607 to 1610" This is misleading as Samuel Schedit has no connection with Danzig whatsoever ever and the Danzig city council most certainly never paid for Scheidt's studies. Scheidt was from Halle and spent most of his life in and around Halle. Fairly sure the intention was to say that Siefert received a scholarship to study with Sweelinck in Amsterdam, where he studied alongside Scheidt. I will update this passage in the coming days and supplement reference literature information as well. --_{User:Sk8london| reply here}
