Andreas Hofer (ca. 162925 February 1684) was a German composer of the Baroque period. Hofer was born at Reichenhall. He was a contemporary of Heinrich Ignaz Franz von Biber, whose predecessor he was in Salzburg in his office of Inspector and ''Hofkapellmeister,'' i.e., director of the court orchestra.〔(''Mitteilungen der Gesellschaft für Salzburger Landeskunde'', vol. 29, Salzburg 1942 p. 193 )〕 Like Biber, Hofer was noted for his large-scale polychoral sacred works. It has been suggested that Hofer was the composer of the famous Missa Salisburgensis à 53 voci, which earlier had been attributed to Orazio Benevoli,〔cf. Orazio Benevoli, ''Missa Salisburgensis'' 1628 (facsimile), Salzburg-Munich: Pustet, 1969 〕 although it is now accepted that it was the work of Biber.〔Ernst Hintermaier,'' 'Missa Salisburgensis'. Neue Erkenntnisse über Entstehung, Autor und Zweckbestimmung'', in: ''Musicologica Austriaca'' 1 (1977), pp. 154–196.〕 Hofer died at Salzburg. His compositions contain significant roles for instruments like the cornetto, trombone or sackbut and trumpet. Little of his music has been performed or recorded in recent times; several scores, however, have been made available. ==Compositions== *Missa Archi Episcopalis à 19: 8 Voci Concertati SSAA/TTBB, 2 Violini, 2 Viole, 2 Cornetti, 2 Trombettae ("Clarini"), 3 Tromboni, Organo con Violone (1668?)〔( Score, ed.
