(Pater) Antonín Remigius Mašát [Maschat, Remigius Maschat a Sancto Erasmo]
(Pacov, 18 November 1692 - Lipník nad Bečvou, 1 February 1747)

Bohemian composer and scholar. He received his education within the Piarist system, completing his studies in philosophy and theology at the order's schools. As a member of the Piarist Order, he was obligated to teach. He excelled not only in music but also in scientific and scholarly pursuits, which was characteristic of the Piarist educational tradition. He is known to have published works on optics and related sciences, demonstrating a broad intellectual scope typical of Baroque-era priest-scholars. His musical activities were primarily centered around the institutions of his order in Bohemia and Moravia, including schools and churches. He used the Latinized pseudonym Antonín Maschat (or Remigius Maschat) for some of his work, which has sometimes led to confusion with other contemporary composers. His extant works are entirely sacred, including one Requiem, the Missa 'Sancti Attalae Abbat', litanies, and offertories.
