Leopold Magenbauer
Leopold Magenbauer (* 1834 in Werschetz , Austrian Empire ; † April 15, 1901 ) was a teacher , choirmaster and composer .
Magenbauer attended the teacher training institute in Sankt Pölten from 1853 to 1855 , where he obtained the teaching diploma for German elementary schools. From 1860 to 1867 he was a sub-teacher in Hatzfeld , and until 1875 he held the post of cantor teacher here. Until his retirement in 1895 he worked in Großkikinda . In Hatzfeld, Magenbauer directed the male choir, for which he composed several works. The composition Királyért, hazáért! appeared in the Budapest music magazine Apollo in 1887 . His Ecce sacerdos magnus for mixed choir, organ and orchestra was performed in 1877 in St. Joseph's Cathedral in Bucharest . The work, like all of his church music works - with the exception of the Offertory Beatus vir - has been lost. In the last years of his life, Magenbauer worked as a choirmaster in Turnu Severin .
