A member of the Cistercian order. His musical talent led him to be accepted as a boarder at the St Nikolaihaus in Innsbruck around 1760, where the students were maintained free of charge and performed as choristers or instrumentalists in the university church choir. At the same time he attended the Innsbruck Gymnasium; after concluding his studies there, in 1768 he probably studied philosophy at the University of Innsbruck. In 1770 his Singspiel Das alte deutsche Wörtlein Tut was performed at the Gymnasium theatre. In the same year he entered the abbey of Stams, notable for its cultivation of music. He devoted himself to the study of theology and in 1774 he was ordained a priest in Bressanone. He became violin teacher to the abbey school in 1785 and was promoted to head music instructor and choirmaster in 1791. About 1790 he developed a solmization system for teaching the choirboys at Stams which resembled the system constructed by Agnes Hundoegger in Germany a century later. However, like his work as a whole, it did not have wide influence. Paluselli was one of the most notable musical personalities of 18th-century Tyrol. Even his early works exhibit the strong personal style that elevates his music above that of other monastic composers. In his secular and sacred works alike he sometimes followed traditional models but at other times displayed unique approaches to the sequence of movements, internal form and text setting. Both in melodic construction and form he prefers an aggregation of small units to large-scale thematic design and development. His music is occasionally reminiscent of Vivaldi. Other characteristics include passages in a folk idiom, finely nuanced rhythmic writing and a certain musical playfulness for which he had a special gift. He also contributed to the development of programmatic music, in particular with his Soggetti diversi.
