Weinmann, Johann(b Nuremberg, c1477; d Wittenberg, late Nov 1542). German organist and composer. From 1492 he studied at Leipzig University before spending the years 1496–8 as organist at the Heilig-Geist-Kirche in Nuremberg. He then went to Erfurt University. In 1506 he succeeded Adam von Fulda as organist at the Schlosskirche at Wittenberg, and from 1509 he resumed his studies at Wittenberg University, where he was also rector and magister, and where he obtained the doctorate. In 1519 he was appointed organist at the town church, Wittenberg. He apparently converted to Protestantism in 1520 or 1521 while retaining his posts in Wittenberg. When he died Weinmann was praised by the university for his outstanding knowledge of history as well as his superior musical artistry. His only extant work is a four-voice setting of Luther's Vater unser im Himmelreich (RISM 154421, ed. in DDT, xxxiv, 1908, 2/1958). Although Weinmann was the oldest composer in the anthology the composition is rather forward-looking in placing the cantus firmus in the top voice instead of in the tenor. BIBLIOGRAPHYBlumeEK R.

He studied with Haberl and Haller at the Regensburg Kirchenmusikschule, in Berlin and at Innsbruck, where he was magister choralis of the theological convent; he was ordained priest in 1899 and took the doctorate under Peter Wagner at Freiburg University in 1905 with a dissertation on the Hymnarium Parisiense. Subsequently he was Kapellmeister of the collegiate church and taught music history and aesthetics at the Regensburg Kirchenmusikschule, where he was also vicar of the cathedral (1908), director of the Proske Library (1909) and Haberl’s successor as director of the Kirchenmusikschule (1910), taking the doctorate in theology in 1917. In 1926 he became president of the Allgemeiner Cäcilienverein and editor of its journal; he also edited the Kirchenmusikalisches Jahrbuch (1909–11), Musica sacra (from 1911) and a number of liturgical collections. His major work is a history of church music, and his writings include books on individual parts of the Mass and several articles on Palestrina.

German composer. He entered the Benedictine monastery at Zwiefalten in 1748 and served it for more than 30 years as organist and regens chori and also at times as subprior. He composed primarily liturgical music for his monastery, but also stage music for a Schwäbisch Gmünd passion play Die Geisslung as well as one oratorio Kain und Abel (both in D-Tl and the Stadtarchiv, Schwäbisch Gmünd). Although he did not have his works printed, many were disseminated through copies. Several of his manuscripts survive (in D-Bsb, HR, OB and the two above-named libraries). Weinrauch was also a respected teacher, counting among his pupils the composers Konrad Back in Ottobeuren, Conradin Kreutzer and probably also J.L. Schubaur. BIBLIOGRAPHYMGG1(E.
