== Biography ==<br />
Kleber was born in Göppingen, studied at Heidelberg University, and afterwards served as organist in Horb am Neckar, Esslingen am Neckar, and Pforzheim, where he died in 1556. His stay at Heidelberg in the years preceding 1512 suggests that he may have studied under [[Arnolt Schlick]].<br />
