German monastic composer. Nothing is known about his early years or training, save that indications he may have been born in Italy cannot be substantiated. He first appears as a Benedictine monk at Petershausen around 1765, where he composed music. Among his works are a large Mass and a Sonata à 4 Organi con Stromenti Clarini, Corni in D. è Tÿmpani per la Festa di Pasqua (1787). The extremely complicated structure of this Sonata, concentrated at a point to a canon of all four organs and all instruments, can really be performed only on instruments which are spatially divided.
