---
German composer active in Sweden. He was born in Dresden and it's
uncertain if he was related with the Gresner family of wind instrument
makers and musicians established there. Almost nothing is known about
his youth until he was appointed as a member (first oboist and later
flautist) of the Royal Court Orchestra in Stockholm, a post he held the
rest of his short life. As a composer, his output came to light in the
1780’s and 1790’s and were intended for various performers, among those
his colleagues in the court orchestra. He was very appreciated and some
of his works were published by Hummel printers in Amsterdam. Among his
compositions, most of them lost, he wrote 4 ballets (Mölnarebalett,
Pantomime för herr Marcadet, Slädpartiet, incidental ballet music in
Vogler’s Gustaf Adolf och Ebba Brahe), orchestral works (4 sinfonias, 1
overture, 2 solo concertos, 2 arias with orchestra (Ah se t’adoro, Med
din sång du redan funnit seger i min ömma själ), chamber music (trios,
duets), works for wind ensemble (14 partitas, 2 arrangements) and piano
pieces.
