---
German Kapellmeister, violinist and composer. His grandfather Philipp
Haindl (?-c.1681) was a choral director at Ebersberg (near Munich), and
his father Johann Sebastian Haindl (1645-1732) was a choirboy at Munich
Cathedral, a singer in the Damenstift at Hall, and the choral director
at Altötting (1683-1706, and from 1715). Haindl first studied music with
his stepfather, the tenor Wolfgang Stängelmayr, and as a choirboy at
the Altötting collegiate church. He studied the violin at Munich and
went to Innsbruck in 1748. In 1752 Duke Clemens of Bavaria appointed him
first violinist at the Munich court, a post he held until about 1778,
though he stayed much of the time at Innsbruck, where he met Leopold
Mozart. After Duke Clemens's death in 1770 he frequently performed
festival music at monasteries in the Tyrol, where most of his extant
works are held. From 1785 to 1803 he served the Bishop of Passau as a
violinist, personal servant and (according to Gerber) from 1793 as
musical director of the theatre.
