Polish violinist and composer. While much of his personal life remains
unknown, he was documented as a violinist and Kapellmeister at the
Pauline Monastery at Jasna Góra in between 1759 and 1768. He must have
been a unique musician when compared with other band members, as at 250
złoties his remuneration ranked among the highest in the ensemble’s
history. Although early thematic catalogues, such as the one by Paweł
Podejko, originally attributed six Masses to him, modern musicological
research, including handwriting analysis and RISM database comparisons,
has confirmed that only two can be definitively attributed to
Perneckher: the Missa Nativitatis Domini in A and the Missa Nativitatis
in F. He also left, among others, two collection of Vesperae, two
sonatas, two symphonies, and Offertories. Other works formerly
associated with his name have since been reattributed to contemporary
composers like František Xaver Brixi or remain unidentified due to the
fragmentary state of the surviving sources.
