Toeschi, Carlo Giuseppe (Carl Joseph) c1722-1788
Italy, Romagna - Germany, Munich
  

A consummate violinist, Toeschi joined the Mannheim
orchestra in 1752 and became its Konzertmeister in
1759. His composition teachers included Johann Stamitz
and the young Anton Filtz. Toeschi's early
compositions were in the old Baroque style and then
later resembled those of his teacher Filtz. By the
1760's, however, he had developed a unique style which
incorporated unique dotted rhythms and canonic
imitation, demanding high technical expertise in the
violin parts. By the 1780's he and Cannabich were the
most highly regarded German symphonists in Paris.
Toeschi is also noted as an important composer of
flute music. The violinist/composer Johann Christoph
Toeschi was his brother, whose son Carl Theodor
Toeschi also composed a small body of notable works.
