(Johann Georg) Romanus (P. Romanus OSB) Pinzger [Binzger]
(Mattighofen, 13 April 1717 - Seeon, 4 October 1755)

German priest and composer. Very few details are known of his life. Son of Mathias Pinzger (1691-1729), he came from a family of violin makers and musicians. In 1728, he entered the Gymnasium in Salzburg, where ten years later he composed the music for the Benedictine theater. There he probably received music lessons from Matthias Sigismund Biechteler von Greiffenthal and Johann Ernst Eberlin. In 1738 he was novice at the Seeon Abbey, where in 1741 was ordained a priest. As a composer, he published two collections of sacred music; 'Sacrificium laudis in voce' (1747) and 'Laus dei jucunda et sonora' (1750). Additionally, he wrote a piece entitled 'Musik f. die Münchener Fastenmeditationen' (c.1749). His brothers Willibaldus Pinzger (1720-1761) and Johann Paul Pinzger (1722-1772) were also musicians and priests, mainly active in Salzburg.
