Educated at the Jesuit college in Augsburg, Johann Ernst Eberlin spent his whole career in Salzburg, where he entered the prince-archbishop’s service as organist in 1726 before becoming court organist and Kapellmeister of the court and cathedral. His nine toccatas and fugues for organ (published around 1747) and his many liturgical versets bridge the late Baroque and the pre-Classical style; Leopold Mozart held his work in high esteem.
