Friedrich Neumann (born September 17, 1957 in Herzberg am Harz ) is a German music teacher and textbook author in Glienicke near Berlin.

Life

After studying to be a teacher (music and history), he worked as a teacher at a secondary school in Bergen (Celle district) until 1986. Between 1986 and 1992 he worked as a professional musician in various bands, theaters and as a studio musician. After completing a postgraduate course in educational science (graduated as a pedagogue) from 1990–92, he taught as a research assistant at the University of Lüneburg until 1996 (teaching degree in music and cultural studies). Since then he has been an independent music producer and specialist author for music education.

Neumann's focus is on pop, rock and rap in music lessons as well as on elementary school music education.
