Heinrich Bellermann

Johann Gottfried Heinrich Bellermann (1832 – 1903) was a German music theorist. He was the author of "Der Contrapunkt" ("Counterpoint"), 1862, (Berlin, Verlag von Julius Springer -- 2nd ed., 1877; 3rd ed., 1887; 4th ed., 1901), and "Die Grösse der musikalischen Intervalle als Grundlage der Harmonie" {"The size of musical intervals as the foundation of harmony"), 1873 (Berlin, J. Springer).

Bellerman may be regarded as an influence on the Second Viennese School, as his "Counterpoint" was used by Arnold Schoenberg when teaching composition to pupils such as Alban Berg and Anton Webern.
