Johann Ernst (Giovanni Ernesto) Eberlin [Eberle, Everlin]
(Jettingen, nr Burgau, bap. 27 March 1702 - Salzburg, 19 June 1762)

German composer and organist. He received his earliest musical education at the Jesuit Gymnasium in Augsburg in 1712, where he was a pupil of Georg Egger and Balthasar Siberer. He moved to Salzburg in 1721 to attend university, and in 1727 he was named organist in the main cathedral. By 1749 he had attained the position of Kapellmeister for Archbishop Schrattenbach, which he held until his death. In 1752 Eberlin’s daughter Maria Josefa Katharina Eberlin (1730-1755) married Anton Cajetan Adlgasser, who two years later became cathedral organist. Eberlin received the honorary appointment of Titular-Truchsess, or princely steward, in 1754 and was widely honoured and respected at the time of his death. Leopold Mozart, in his description of the Salzburg musical establishment (published in F.W. Marpurg’s 'Historisch-kritische Beyträge zur Aufnahme der Musik', 1757), called Eberlin ‘a thorough and accomplished master of the art of composing … He is entirely in command of the notes, and he composes easily and rapidly … One can compare him to the two famous and industrious composers, [Alessandro] Scarlatti and Telemann’. As a composer, he was known mainly for his sacred music, which was written for both the main cathedral, the Benedictine-run university, and the St. Peter’s monastery church. These include over 95 plays and other didactic music such as the monodrama 'Sigismundus' (1763), 11 oratorios, three operas, 58 Masses, 160 settings of the Mass Proper, numerous hymns, litanies, Psalms, and responsories as well as 21 German sacred arias, nine Requiems, three symphonies, nine toccata and fugues, 65 preludes and versetti, and other smaller keyboard works. Eberlin influenced composers of the next generation chiefly through his sacred vocal music, among them Leopold and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and Johann Michael Haydn. His daughter, Maria Caecilia Barbara Eberlin (1728-1806), also became a composer and was married to composer Joseph Meissner.
