Jan Josef Ignác Brentner

Czech composer (also spelled Brenntner, Brendner, Brendtner, or Prentner) of baroque era (November 3, 1689, Dobřany – June 28, 1742, Dobřany, Czechia). Brentner's music fuses a simple and direct melodic component, reminiscent of contemporary Moravian practices, with a complex and highly ornamented instrumental accompaniment more typical of Czech musicians.
