---
German composer. He was the son of Sebastian Maichelbeck and Anna Maria
Koch. In 1721 he was a student of theology at the university of
Freiburg, but in 1725 he went to Rome to study sacred music. Two years
later he returned to Freiburg, where he became an organist at a local
church and in 1730 professor of Italian at the university. He was
reputed to have been a learned humanist. His obituary describes him as a
very learned man of music, highly esteemed by his contemporaries. As a
composer, only few works are extant, the most praised of them, his 'Die
auf dem Clavier spielende und das Gehör vergnügende Caecilia ... op.I'
(1736) which includes a collection of keyboard sonatas as study pieces
and focused to amateur keyboard players. He also left several sacred
works, among them, a Requiem in D-Dur and the Missa Sanctissimae Matris
Scholasticae (1734).
