Carl van der Hoeven (also Hoffen, Houen, Houven, Hoven, Howen, Carolus von der Hauf) (1580 – May 5, 1661) was a German composer and organist born in Nuremberg. Hoeven studied under a composer named Hassler, either Hans Leo Hassler or Kaspar Hassler, and joined the court of Georg von Zollern in Hechingen as a composer in 1606. He appears to have been associated with this court until 1611, though in 1609 he took a position as organist at the court in Salzburg, where he remained for more than fifty years.
