Short bio Johann Georg Lickl
Full biography Johann Georg Lickl
Johann Georg Lickl was a talented composer who lived from 1769 to 1843. He was born in the town of Grünburg, which is located in present-day Austria. Throughout his life, Lickl was known for his compositions for both church and music hall performances.
Lickl's early musical education began at the monastery of St. Florian in Austria. He was later appointed as a church musician at this same monastery, where he composed numerous works for sacred performance. In addition to his sacred music, Lickl also wrote secular music, including symphonies and chamber music.
Some of Lickl's most well-known works include his Requiem in C Minor, which was composed in 1828, and his Symphony No. 6 in E-flat Major, which was completed in 1833. These works were composed during Lickl's most productive period as a musician, during which he also wrote numerous other compositions for orchestras and choirs.
Despite his success as a composer, Lickl's life was not without struggles. He suffered from poverty throughout much of his career, and was largely unknown outside of Austria during his lifetime. Nevertheless, Lickl persevered as a musician, continuing to compose despite his financial hardships.
Today, Lickl is remembered as an important figure in the development of classical music in Austria. His works are still performed by orchestras and choirs around the world, and his legacy continues to inspire generations of musicians.
