---
German composer. In 1721 he was accepted as a novice in the
Premonstratensian Imperial abbey of Schussenried and became a professed
monk in 1724. According to the annals of the abbey, father Agustin was
considered to be an excellent musician. However, he was also notorious
for his lack of discipline. In 1746 he was promoted to "regens chori" in
Schussenried, a post he held until 1750. As a composer, his extant
works are two keyboard "parthien" published in Augsburg and entitled
'Aes sonorum suavi et facili modulamine tinniens in cimbalo' (1746) and
'Adiaphoron musicum suavi et facili modulamine distrahens animum in
cimbalis benesonantibus' (1746). He died 26th January 1751 in Bad
Schussenried.
