Johann Beer (also spelled Bähr, Baer, or Behr, Latinized as Ursus or Ursinus, (Sankt Georgen, 28 February 1655 – 6 August 1700, Weissenfels) was an Austrian author, court official and composer.〔James N. Hardin ''Johann Beer'' 1983〕 Beer was born in Austria to Protestant parents. In 1676 he entered the service of Augustus, Duke of Saxe-Weissenfels as a countertenor. In 1700 he died, aged 45, as the result of a hunting accident.〔Ferdinand van Ingen, Hans-Gert Roloff, Ulrike Wels ''Johann Beer: Schriftsteller, Komponist und Hofbeamter, 1655-1700'' 2003〕 His comic writings are reminiscent of Hans Jakob Christoffel von Grimmelshausen. His work of music theory ''Musikalische Discurse'' reveals German baroque performance practice.〔e.g. Philipp Spitta ''Johann Sebastian Bach: his work and influence '' 1951 "Johann Bahr, who was in his time Concert-meister at Weissenfels, says that one man conducts with the foot, another with the head, a third with the hand, some with both hands, some again take a roll of paper, and others a stick."〕 ==Works and editions== Comic novels * ''Der Simplicianische Welt-Kucker.''
