Johann Georg (Jan Jiří) Lang
(Schweissing [now Svojšín], 1722 - Ehrenbreitstein, 17 July 1798)
Bohemian composer, keyboardist and violinist. His first training was in Prague, where he studied keyboard and violin. In 1746 he was hired by the Prince-Archbishop of Augsburg as a musician, and in 1749 he was sent to Italy, where he studied under Francesco Durante and Girolamo Abos in Naples. Returning three years later, he was appointed Konzertmeister in 1758, and in 1768 the new ruler, Archbishop Clemens Wenzeslaus, Elector of Trier, moved his court to the summer palace at Ehrenbreitstein. Even toward the end of his life when the court abandoned their residences, Lang remained in Ehrenbreitstein near Trier. Known mainly for his instrumental works, Lang’s compositions are characterized by good periodic structure and broad melodies. These include five Masses, a litany, a Te Deum, several Lieder, 38 symphonies, 29 keyboard concertos, 25 horn concertos (and eight other concertos), nine mixed quartets with keyboard, 25 sonatas, 21 works for keyboard, three trios, and duos for violin and cello.
