He is known for several theoretical works, and for his beginners' textbook Compendiolum musicae of 1548, which was the most popular book in Lutheran schools during the 16th and 17th centuries, and is today an important source of two-voice compositions of the period.
The Heinrich-Faber Musikschule Lichtenfels – a musical school – is named after him.
