Kapellmeister
(, also , ) from German ''Kapelle'' (chapel) and ''Meister'' (master)'','' literally "master of the chapel choir" designates the leader of an ensemble of musicians. Originally used to refer to somebody in charge of music in a chapel, the term has evolved considerably in its meaning and is today used for denoting the leader of a musical ensemble, often smaller ones used for TV, radio, and theatres. Historical usage In German-speaking countries during the approximate period 1500–1800, the word often designated the director of music for a monarch or nobleman. For English speakers, it is this sense of the term that is most often encountered, since it appears frequently in biographical writing about composers who worked in German-speaking countries. During that period, in Italy, the position (Italian: ''maestro di capella'') largely referred to directors of music assigned to cathedrals and sacred institutions rather than those under royal or aristocratic patronage. A Kapellmeister ...

Sigismund Salblinger
Sigismund Salminger (ca. 1500 in Munich – ca. 1554) was a former Franciscan who was baptised by Hans Hut and married. Having just arrived in Augsburg the second time he became a leader of the Augsburg Anabaptists in 1526, before imprisonment in 1527, and finally recantation and release in 1530. His name also appeared as Sigmund Salminger, Sigismund Salblinger, and Sigismund Slablinger. He remained in Augsburg after his release and rehabilitation, penning several German hymns.
