His date of birth is given variously as about 1720, about 1735, or about 1740, his place of birth as Silesia, Alsace, or Nuremberg. (Wikipedia) At present Silesia is divided among Germany, Poland and Czechia. "Schobert was probably born in Silesia, although some say he was born in Nuremberg. He moved to Paris in 1760 or 1761 and worked for the Duke of Conti. During the following years he published his instrumental music at his own expense. His comic opera La garde-chasse et la braconnier met with no success in 1767. Schobert came into contact with the Mozart family when they visited Paris in 1764. Leopold Mozart reported that his children played Schobert's works with ease, and that it made Schobert furious. Leopold called him 'Low and not at all what he should be'. The young Mozart was apparently greatly impressed (as a 7-year old) by the D Major sonata of Op. 3, and imitated it and others of Schobert in his Parisian and English sonatas; he based the second movement of his second piano concerto (K.39) on Schobert's sonata op. 17 no. 2. Mozart furthermore taught his Paris students Schobert's sonatas in 1778. Schobert's music is remarkable for its forward-looking formal and stylistic features, notably in the keyboard music with accompanying instruments. Schobert was a member of the avant garde of his time and when other composers were still with the baroque or in the C.P.E. Bach period, he was ahead of them all. Schobert died (1767) in Paris, along with his wife and one of his children, after mistakenly eating poisonous mushrooms." (Alex Waterhouse-Hayward) More about Schobert's (and family's) strange death: "It is more likely the case, that mushroom poisoning occurs as a result of volition, the decision to consume a mushroom of dubious identification resting with the victim. There have been occasions where arrogant decisiveness has overridden caution. The most notable case is that of Johann Schobert, a composer who was employed by the Prince of Conti in Paris in the latter half of the 17th Century. He wrote harpsichord concertos, opera and sonatas that purportedly served as the basis for some of the later work by Mozart, his contemporary. Schobert may have had a talent equal to that of Mozart; we shall never know, as he succumbed to mushroom poisoning. According to the historical account, he had gathered some mushrooms in Pré-Saint-Gervais near Paris with his family and proceeded to a restaurant to have the chef prepare them. When he was told that they were poisonous, he proceeded to a second restaurant with like result. Undeterred, he went home to Paris and made mushroom soup for dinner. He was joined in death by his wife, one of his children, and a friend, a doctor; fittingly, it was the doctor who had proffered the mushroom identification in the first place."
