Wolfgang Joseph Emmerig 
(Stadtkemnath, 5 January 1772 - Regensburg, 13 June 1839)

German priest and composer. Son of the shoemaker Lorenz Emmerig and his wife Maria Elisabeth Baumann. He received the first lessons in the Latin language and music. In 1783 he sang as a boy chorister in the Waldsassen Monastery, where he continued studying music the following three years. In 1786 he was admitted to the seminary of the Benedictine Abbey of St. Emmeram in Regensburg. At the same time he attended the St. Paul high school and then studied theology at the Lyceums in Regensburg and Amberg. On 31 July 1796 he was ordained secular priest and from 1800 he taught at the monastery school as a "teacher in singing" and short afterwards the office of choir regent. On 9 April 1812, he took over the post of seminar inspector, which he held until 1 August 1834. On 22 September 1821, he became a member of the Regensburg Botanical Society and he also taught as a provisional professor of mineralogy, botany and natural history at the Regensburg Lyceum from 1831-1834. Emmerig was also active as a composer from c.1790. Around 1793 he wrote the "Vesperae Solemnes" op.1, which it was dedicated to the Prince Abbot Coelestin Steiglehner (1738-1819) and had it published by Johann Michael Daisenberger (1772-1848) in Stadtamhof in 1802. His extant output is about 67 works, 35 of which were published during the composer's lifetime. Emmerig's works were spread over Europe and there is evidence that they were performed until the 1870s. His Vespers and masses in particular were widely used in print and transcripts. Wolfgang Joseph Emmerig died in Regensburg on 13 June 1839. The burial took place at the Lower Catholic Cemetery. August Emmanuel Fürnrohr (1804-1861) wrote in his obituary: "Anyone who has had the opportunity to get to know and appreciate the extensive knowledge, the undemanding modesty, the childishly pious simplicity of customs, the genuine religiosity and the nobility of mind that has arisen from it, will be happy to agree with me that Emmerich was one of those men who, unfortunately, are becoming increasingly rare in our demanding times, who will also find justice in the tears which flowed from the eyes of a numerous gathering at the grave of the one who passed away too early." #ClassicalMusic
