7BARBIREAU (Barbarian, Barbingaut, Barbiryant, Barbyrianus), JACQUES, born perhaps at Mons, Hainault, died at Antwerp, Aug. 8, 1491. Church composer and celebrated contrapuntist; he is mentioned as choir-master at Notre Dame, Antwerp, as early as 1448, was considered one of the highest musical authorities of his time, and the master of many famous musicians who lived in his, and at the beginning of the 16th century, notably Okeghem, Jacotin, Bredeniers, Égide Charlier, and Van den Wyngaert. Under his direction the musical service at Notre Dame attained to a very high standard. He was a friend of Rudolf Agricola, with whom he maintained a literary correspondence.

13BARGIEL, WOLDEMAR, born in Berlin, Oct. 3, 1828, still living, 1888. His father was a music teacher in Berlin, his mother the divorced wife of Friedrich Wieck; he is thus step-brother to Clara Schumann. He studied the pianoforte, violin, and organ at home, and counterpoint under Dehn. In 1846 he went to Leipsic, where he spent two years at the Conservatory, of which Mendelssohn was then director. In 1850 he began teaching in Berlin, and gradually established his reputation as a composer by the publication of several pianoforte pieces, orchestral and chamber works. He had already made some mark in Leipsic with a string-octet, which was played at one of the public examinations at the Conservatory. In 1859 he got a professorship at the Cologne Conservatory, and in 1865 was made Kapellmeister and director of the music school at Rotterdam. In 1874 he became professor at Joachim's Hochschule für Musik in Berlin. Bargiel is one of the more prominent followers of Schumann; he has not been a voluminous composer, but some of his works entitle him to a high position in modern German music. His best known work is the overture to Medea, which holds an honourable place in the current concert repertory. Works: Overture Zur einem Trauerspiel, op. 18; do. to Medea, op. 22; do. to Prometheus; do. to Romeo und Julie (? is possibly op. 18); Symphony in C; Trois danses brillantes, for orchestra, op. 24;
