He was born at Erasbach (2 July 1714), and died in Vienna (15 Nov. 1787). His father was a forester in the Upper Palatinate (now the western extreme of Czechoslovakia); Czech was his native tongue. At about 14 he left home to study in Prague, where he worked as an organist.
He soon moved to Vienna and then to Milan, where his first opera was given in 1741. Others followed, elsewhere in Italy and during 1745-6 in London, where he met Handel 's music. After further travel (Dresden, Copenhagen, Naples, Prague) he settled in Vienna in 1752 as Konzertmeister of the Prince of Saxe-Hildburghausen's orchestra, then as Kapellmeister. He also became involved in performances at the court theatre of French opéras comiques, as arranger and composer, and he wrote Italian dramatic works for court entertainments. His friends tried, at first unsuccessfully, to procure a court post for him; but by 1759 he had a salaried position at the court theatre and soon after was granted a royal pension. He met the poet Calzabigi and the choreographer Angiolini, and with them wrote a ballet-pantomime Don Juan (1761) embodying a new degree of artistic unity.

    Christoph Willibald Gluck 1714-1787
    First employed in the house of Prince Lobkowitz in Vienna, Gluck accompanied the court to Milan where he studied with Sammartini. A growing reputation as a composer of opera earned Gluck an invitation (1745) to London writing for the Haymarket Theatre. When Handel cynically advised Gluck that his works had not pleased the public, he traveled to Paris where he was very much influenced by the operas of Rameau . From 1755-61 Gluck was in Vienna where he began his important work of reforming opera seria along the more dramatic lines suggested in Marcello's Teatro alla moda (1720). Gluck's contribution to opera is in the development of an international style combining the best traits of Italian, French, and German schools.

    ist hauptsächlich wegen seiner großen Opernreform bekannt und wurde am 2. Juli 1714 in Erasbach geboren und starb am 15. November 1787 in Wien.
    Er studierte an der Prager Universität und war zugleich als Sänger und Cellist tätig. Ab 1737 war er in Mailand wo er 4 Jahre Komposition bei Sammartini studierte.
    1741 wurde seine erste Oper 'Artaxerxes' aufgeführt und es folgten 5 weitere Opern für Mailand, Venedig und Turin. 1745 ging er nach London wo er Händel begegnete. Dann ging Gluck mit einer Operntruppe auf Tournee durch ganz Europa, wo er seine eigene und die Musik anderer Komponisten aufführte. 1750 ließ er sich in Wien nieder, wo er bis 1764 Kapellmeister an der Hofoper war.
    Glucks Opernreform ging dahin, die Selbstherrlichkeit den Sängern zu nehmen. An Stelle des Bravourgesanges, den 3teiligen Arien und Rezitativen, die die dramatische Handlung erstarren ließen und ohne wirklichen Bezug zur Handlung waren, traten Arien, die durch wiederkehrende Begleitmotive die Teile des Werkes zu einer Einheit führten. Sein Einfluß auf die Geschichte des Musiktheaters ist von enormen Bedeutung. Vor allem H. Berlioz und R. Wagner griffen die Gedanken von Gluck auf.
      Hauptwerke:
      107 Opern und andere Bühnenwerke, 4 Ballette, 9 Symphonien, zahlreiche Chor- und Kammermusikwerke...
