Joseph Mainzer (1801- 1851), German music teacher, at his keyboard in a lecture theatre. He is best known for the free classes he opened in Paris (1835), London and Edinburgh (1841), in which hundreds of adults learnt to sing. His journal Mainzer's Musical times (founded 1842) was taken over by Novello and in 1844 became The Musical Times.
