  Hermann Mannheim: a biographical note
Mannheim was soon appointed a judge, first in the lower courts, then in the superior court - the district court of Berlin - where he took part in and presided over a large number of difficult criminal trials in what was the busiest criminal court in Germany.
In addition, Mannheim's long association with the training of probation officers, at the London School of Economics, at the training centre at Rainer House, and at the Institute for the Study and Treatment of Delinquency, should not be overlooked.
Mannheim was also instrumental, with others, in founding the Scientific Group for the Discussion of Delinquency Problems (now the British Society of Criminology) of which he was Chairman from 1956 to 1958 and is now a Vice-President.

  Mannheim school - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mannheim school refers to both the orchestral techniques pioneered by the court orchestra of Mannheim in the latter half of the 18th century as well as the group of composers who wrote such music for the orchestra of Mannheim and others.
It was joined by Johann Stamitz, who is generally considered to be the founder of the Mannheim school, in 1741/42, and he became its director in 1750.
The most notable of the revolutionary techniques of the Mannheim orchestra were its more independent treatment of the wind instruments and its famous whole-orchestra crescendo, a stark contrast to the dynamics of baroque music, which allowed only for instantaneous changes from forte to piano and back.

 HOASM: The Mannheim School
The Mannheim School flourished principally during the reign (1743-78) of the Elector Palatine Karl Theodor.
During the second half of the 18th century Mannheim, as residence of Karl Theodor, was one of the most flourishing seats of the arts and sciences.
The growing use of crescendo and diminuendo around the middle of the century was one symptom of a trend toward attaining variety within a movement by means of gradual transitions; Baroque movements had either kept to a uniform dynamic level or else introduced distinct contrasts, as in the concerto.
