German composer. Son of Johann Elias Mohrheim, Kantor in Neumark, he
enrolled at the Thomasschule in Leipzig on 18 April 1733. There he
studied with J.S. Bach from 1733 to 1736, and, like other J.S. Bach's
pupils, acted as copyist for him during this period, identified in the
manuscripts. He continued his studies at Universität Jena from 1738
(enrollment on February 4, 1738); and at Universität Halle from 1739
(enrollment on June 9, 1739). After his studied, he was appointed
substitute of Johann Balthasar Christian Freißlich from 1750 and
Kapellmeister from 1764 at St. Marien in Danzig, where he died. As a
composer, his output consists primarily of sacred music, though he also
wrote several concertos and organ works.
