Andrea (Andre, András, Andreas von) Bernasconi [Bernascone, Bernaskoni, Bornasconi]
(Marseilles?, 1706 - Munich, 24 January 1784)
Italian composer. Son of a military officer, he grew up in Parma. In around 1725 he apparently received further musical education in Milan, where he made his debut as a composer in 1737. In 1744 he was appointed as music director of the Ospedale della Pietà in Venice in a post he held until 1746. A decree of 24 November 1753 refers to his engagement as assistant Kapellmeister of vocal music in Munich from 1 August 1753; his appointment coincided with the opening of the Residenztheater. On 5 June 1754 he was named music teacher to the princesses Maria Anna Josepha and Josepha Maria. Following the death of Giovanni Porta, he was appointed Kapellmeister on 7 September 1755. In 1778 Elector Carl Theodor confirmed his official post, but he probably rendered no further service. After his death, he was succeded by Franz Paul Grua. As a composer, his works include 20 operas, 34 Masses, 11 offertories, eight oratorios, six litanies, around 125 smaller sacred works, 20 symphonies, and a flute concerto. His stepdaughter Antonia Bernasconi (c.1741-c.1803) was a soprano mainly active in Vienna.
