Georg Christoph Wagenseil (29 January 1715 – 1 March 1777) was an Austrian composer. He was born in Vienna, and became a favorite pupil of the Vienna court's Kapellmeister, Johann Joseph Fux.〔Kucaba, John.: "Introduction: Life" in ''The Symphony 1720 - 1840'' Series B - Volume III, ed. Barry S. Brooks (New York & London, 1981) p. xi〕 Wagenseil himself composed for the court from 1739 to his death. He also held positions as harpsichordist and organist. His pupils included Johann Baptist Schenk (who was to teach Ludwig van Beethoven), and Marie Antoinette. He traveled little, and died in Vienna having spent most of his life there. Wagenseil was a well-known musical figure in his day — both Joseph Haydn and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart are known to have been familiar with his works. His early works are Baroque, while his later pieces are in the Classical style. He composed a number of operas, choral works, symphonies,〔Kucaba, John.: "Thematic Index" in ''The Symphony 1720 - 1840'' Series B - Volume III, ed. Barry S. Brooks (New York & London, 1981) pp. xxxvii - l〕 concertos, chamber music and keyboard pieces. ==Operas== *''La generosità trionfante'' (1745) *''Ariodante'' (1745) *''La clemenza di Tito'' (1745) *''Demetrio'' (1746) *''Alexander der Grosse in Indien'' (1748) *''Il Siroe'' (1748) *''L'olimpiade'' (1749) *''Andromeda'' (1750) *''Antigono'' (1750) *''Euridice'' (1750) *''Armida placata'' (1750) *''Vincislao'' (1750) *''Le cacciatrici amanti'' (1755) *''Prometeo assoluto'' (1762) *''Catone'' (?) *''Merope'' (1766) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Georg Christoph Wagenseil」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
