Ignaz (Jakob) Holzbauer [Hoelebutler, Holtzbauer]
(Vienna, 17 September 1711 - Mannheim, 7 April 1783)

Austrian composer. He was attracted to music at an early age, but this inclination received no support from his father, a Viennese leather merchant, who wanted him to study law. His earliest musical education was under Johann Joseph Fux, following which he served as choirmaster at the St. Stephen’s Cathedral, Vienna, as well as studied theology at the University of Vienna. In 1730 he was persuaded to pursue further musical education in Venice by Fux. Positions in Laibach (now Ljubljana) and Holešov followed, during which he successfully produced in 1737 an opera, 'Lucio Papirio dittatore'. By 1746 he was musical director at the Burgtheater, and in 1750 he traveled to Stuttgart as hofKapellmeister. By 1753 he was hired by Elector Carl Theodor as Kapellmeister in Mannheim, where he composed works such as 'Günther von Schwarzburg' in 1777, one of the first Classical German operas based upon a historical subject. When the court moved to Munich in 1778, he accepted a post in Monaco but returned to Mannheim to retire in 1781. As a composer, he was one of the most prolific composers of the 18th century, particularly in the realm of the symphony. His music is noted for its powerful dramatic style, particularly in the use of the orchestra as well as progressive harmony. He composed around 200 symphonies, 13 concertos (mainly for strings), 18 string quartets, 24 orchestral minuets, two piano quintets, around 15 trios, 18 operas, several ballets, four oratorios, 32 Masses, two Requiems, and 44 other sacred works including cantatas, Te Deums, hymns, and such. His music had a significant influence on Viennese composers.
