During worship services, the singers and instrumentalists of the princely court orchestra performed on the uppermost gallery next to the organ.
Court Kapellmeister Johann Philipp Krieger (d. 1725) wrote numerous compositions for the palace church. A list of his works has survived, but only a small number of manuscripts. In 1732 Georg Philipp Telemann (1681–1767)) composed festive music to mark the 50th anniversary of the church’s consecration.
