Heinlein's first train­ing came from a lo­cal mu­si­cian who taught him to play the key­board and wind in­stru­ments. He went on to stu­dy in Linz, Mu­nich, and in It­a­ly (1646). He was ap­point­ed Raths­mu­sik­us in Nürn­berg in 1650; or­gan­ist at St. Ägy­di­en in 1655, Ka­pell­meis­ter at the Church of Our La­dy in 1656, and or­gan­ist at St. Se­bald’s Ca­the­dral in 1656. His works in­clude six books of mourn­ing and fun­er­al hymns, and tunes con­trib­ut­ed to other col­lect­ions.
