Jan Václav (Joannes de Deo Venceslaus) Flaška [Flaschka, Flasska]
(c.1708 - Klattau [now Klatovy], 9 October 1783)

Bohemian composer. Almost nothing is known about his life. Primary records note his marriage to Marie Anna Schuchová in Klattau on 5 October 1761. From 1740 to 1783, he was regenschori (choirmaster) at the Deanery Church in Klattau in a post he held until his death. His only extant work is a Requiem ex Dis, a work reflecting the stylistic influence of early 18th Century Prague composers such as František Václav Wentzely, Gunther Jacob, and Jan Josef Gayer.
