Flemish composer and violinist. His first years are unknown. From about
1664 he was a violinist at the court of the Elector Maximilian Heinrich
in Bonn and later became vice-Kapellmeister there. From 1675 he lived
principally in Cologne, but from about 1683 to 1699 he also worked in
the Netherlands, where he was highly regarded as a violinist and
numbered Carolus Hacquart among his colleagues. On a title-page of 1691
he is described as vice-Kapellmeister at the court at Cologne. In 1697
he participated in a collegium musicum in Amsterdam together with
Nicolas Desrosier, Hendrik Anders and others. In 1699 he was
Kapellmeister of Cologne Cathedral and in 1701 was appointed to a
similar post by the city council; he kept both posts until his death in
1725. As a composer, he mainly published sacred works, among them,
'Motetta, sive cantiones sacrae' (1668) and at least 12 masses and 18
motets (c.1705-1713). He was also praised as a composer of instrumental
music, mainly by his collection of '14 sonate' for several instruments
(1697). His daughter Maria Anna married the composer Willem de Fesch.
