Franz Johannes Gleißner (1759 – 18 September 1818)[1] was a German
lithographer and
composer. In the late 18th century, he met
Alois Senefelder, with whom he collaborated for approximately 30 years using lithography as a method of reproduction to print music scores. Using the songs composed by Gleißner,[2] Senefelder demonstrated that lithography could be successfully used for music publication.
