Johann Caspar Seyfert

Johann Caspar Seyfert (1697 – 26 May 1767, Augsburg) was a German composer, violinist and lute player.

He was a music director in Augsburg where he was born and died. In 1746 he added a fourth volume to the ''Augsburger Tafel-Confect'', which Valentin Rathgeber had published in 1733, 1737 and 1739. The short title abbreviates ''Ohren-vergnügendes und Gemüth-ergötzendes Tafel-Confect'' (''Augsburg Table Confectionery'', short for ''Table Confectionery, Pleasuring the Ears and Delightful to the Soul''), a collection of songs meant to be performed for dessert, whereas a ''Tafelmusik'' was performed during a main course.

His son, (1731–1772) also was a well-known composer of chamber music works, piano sonatas, oratorios, and 20 symphonies. Provided by Wikipedia
