A pupil of his godfather Christian Cannabich, he is listed as a supernumerary violinist in the Mannheim court orchestra in 1770-72 and as a violinist in 1773-78. By 1776 he was receiving a salary of 300 gulden, which rose to 450 in 1778. His great ability on the violin is confirmed by Mozart, who taught him composition in Mannheim (as recorded in a letter from Mozart’s mother, 14 December 1777). He accompanied the court when it moved to Munich in 1778, and there gave violin instruction to his most famous pupil, Friedrich Johann Eck. In 1785 he became Konzertmeister in Zweibrücken, and three years later took over the same position at Karlsruhe. From 1803 he held the title of musical director to the Grand Duchy of Baden. His only known work is a violin concerto composed in Munich in 1786 and published about two years later by Sieber in Paris and Amon in Heilbronn.
