Johann Baptist Schiedermayr the Elder (also: Schiedermayer, Schiedermair ) (born June 23, 1779 in Münster ( Bavaria ); † January 6, 1840 in Linz ) was a German composer and church musician .

Life

Johann Baptist Schiedermayr the Elder was born as the son of the teacher Georg Schiedermayr, who taught in the Pfaffenmünster monastery . His older brother Georg was an organist in the Premonstratensian Monastery of Windberg and his younger brother Franz Xaver (born December 25, 1782 in Cham ; † 1833 in Straubing ) later became a teacher and composer.

Johann Baptist Schiedermayr the Elder was trained early on by his father in song and came in 1788 as a choirboy in the canons of the Premonstratensian in Windberg, where his brother George had already worked as an organist, and learned there in this and play the piano.

In 1791 he went to the Benedictine Abbey of Oberalteich , where he received lessons from Father Ignaz Edmund Härtl and the school teacher Stephan Fuchs in singing and studying basso continuo .

In 1793, at the age of 14, he came to the electoral study and music seminar in Straubing and was the best organ player among 24 students. Here he received lessons from Thaddäus Wolfgang Freiherr von Dürnitz (1756–1807), one of the best piano players of his time. Two Latin teachers trained him on the flute and violin instruments. The following year, Johann Baptist Schiedermayr the Elder began to compose: a Tantum ergo with 4 voices, an Alma redemtoris mater and a Mass in D major for his father.

In 1796 he left the seminary and went to the canons of St. Nikola near Passau . At first he was employed as a bass player and later as an organist, at the same time he studied theology at the “Collegium academicum”. He was studying in the second course when all monasteries and monasteries in Bavaria were abolished as part of the secularization .

Because he no longer saw a future for himself in Bavaria, he moved to Austria and applied for the position of the late gymnast / organist Eggerstorfer at a rehearsal concert in Schärding . The condition that he had to take the eldest daughter of the deceased as his wife was tied to the award of the position. However, he refused and did not get the job, but got to know his future wife, the youngest daughter Barbara Eggerstorfer, at the rehearsal concert.

On February 24, 1804 he went to Linz and was employed as a musician under the cathedral and city bandmaster Franz Xaver Glöggl in the church, in the theater and with the citizen guard on various instruments until he was hired as cathedral and city parish organist in 1810 has been.

In 1839, after the death of Franz Xaver Glöggl, Johann Baptist Schiedermayr the elder became provisional cathedral and parish bandmaster.
