He was the son of a choirmaster and teacher, Johann Gänsbacher (1751–1806), and as a boy sang in church choirs in Sterzing, Innsbruck, Hall and Bolzano; he also had lessons in piano, organ, violin, cello and thoroughbass. In 1795 he went to the university at Innsbruck and studied first philosophy, then law, supporting himself by giving music lessons, playing the organ, singing in church choirs and playing in the theatre orchestra. His first compositions date from this period. While at university he took part in four campaigns against Napoleon. In 1801 he went to Vienna to continue his musical studies, and was relieved of financial worries when Count Firmian, who further promoted his career as a musician, took him into his family as a son in about 1803. In Vienna he had lessons from the Abbé Vogler (1803–4) and from Albrechtsberger (1806). A Mass in C, composed through the offices of Vogler for Nikolaus Esterhazy in 1806, established his reputation as a composer. Nevertheless, he returned to Vogler in Darmstadt for a short period in 1810, where his fellow-pupils and friends included Weber and Meyerbeer, who admitted him as a founder-member of the ‘Harmonische Verein’, for which he was active until 1813. In January 1813 he met Weber in Prague and recommended him for the post of Kapellmeister of the theatre. In the summer of the same year Gänsbacher returned to the Tyrol to join the fighting to liberate the province from the Bavarian occupation. After the end of the war he did not return to the Firmian family but joined the army as a first lieutenant (1814). He was stationed first in Italian garrisons, in Trient, Mantua and Padua then at Innsbruck in 1815, where he again tried to gain a foothold as a musician. He worked as a conductor and director of a church choir, and helped to found the Musikverein, though he did not gain the position of chief conductor. He did not accept the post of director of music in Dresden, offered him at the instigation of Weber in 1823, since (after representations against the election of Joseph Weigl), he was appointed Kapellmeister of the Stephansdom in Vienna as successor to Josef Preindl in September 1824. One of the choristers (who were also his pupils) was his nephew Anton Mitterwurzer (1818-76), later famous as an opera singer. From this time on Gänsbacher composed mainly church music, and only a few homage cantatas. By the time of his death he was one of the most famous musicians in Vienna. Some of Gänsbacher's early instrumental compositions, such as the Clarinet Concertino and the sonatas in F major (1803) and G minor (1810), are remarkable for the individuality of their ideas and their unconventional structure, while his Italian canzonettas and terzetti are effective for their reticent simplicity. Yet the works he composed later for social performance clearly show a deterioration of quality. Even before his 20 years at the Stephansdom, sacred music was becoming central to his output. Starting with the masses in C and B (1806/8) and the Requiem (1812), he wrote some creditable and well-regarded works in this field. Although they do not stand out from the manner of their time, and show little stylistic innovation, they nonetheless show Gänsbacher's considerable skill as a composer. His son Josef Gänsbacher (1829-1911) studied the piano, the cello and singing, and went to university to read law, graduating in 1855. He practised law for a number of years, but concurrently gave piano and singing lessons, and in 1868 devoted himself entirely to teaching singing. From 1875 to 1904 he was a tutor at the conservatory of the Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde, becoming by the turn of the century the most highly-regarded singing teacher in Vienna. Some of his pupils achieved international recognition, including Maria Wilt, Milka Ternina, Leopold Demuth and Julius Liban. Brahms dedicated his cello sonata op.38 to him. He was a composer, chiefly of songs but also of piano and choral pieces, and was a co-editor of the Schubert complete edition.
