Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber (baptised. 12 August 1644,– 3 May 1704) was a Bohemian-Austrian composer and violinist. Biber worked in Graz and Kromenz before he illegally left his employer and settled in Salzburg. He remained there for the rest of his life, publishing much of his music but apparently seldom, if ever, giving concert tours.
Biber was among the major composers for the violin in the history of the instrument. During Biber's lifetime, his music was known and imitated throughout Europe. In the late 18th century he was named the best violin composer of the 17th century by music historian Charles Burney. In the late 20th century Biber's music, especially the Mystery Sonatas, enjoyed a renaissance. Today, it is widely performed and recorded.
