Nonnosus (Johannes Baptist) Madlseder [Madelseder, Madiseder, Mad lseder]
(Meran [now Merano], 20 June 1730 - Andechs, 3 April 1797)

German composer, choir director and organist. He was a choirboy at the chapel of the royal convent in Hall, and sang in school comedies at the Jesuit Gymnasium there (1743-45); he continued his studies at the monastery of Polling, Bavaria, and at Freising. In 1749 he entered the Benedictine monastery at Andechs and in 1754 was ordained priest. According to his foreword to the Offertories, Op.1, he studied at Andechs with the music director Gregor Schreyer, was the monastery's assistant director of music (1755), organist and director of the Tafelmusik (1757), leader of the Figuralchor (1760) and singing master (1761-62). In 1763, to encourage his compositional activity, Abbot Meinrad Moosmüller sent him to visit the Italian Opera in Munich. In 1767 he became the music director and leader of the boys’ classes at the Andechs monastery. In 1772-74 and 1791-94 he was a priest at the convent of Lilienberg, Munich. Madlseder was considered an outstanding theoretician and contrapuntist and was highly regarded as a Kapellmeister and organist. His symphony shows Mannheim and Viennese Classical influences. The sacred vocal works, with their coloratura solo parts and fugal sections, are frequently demanding for the singer. His brother Josef Madlseder (1740-1806) was a bass singer and Kammervirtuos at Passau, and from 1803 a member of the choir at Salzburg Cathedral.
