He was born in 1816 and died in 1877. He served as Trumpet Major of the 2nd Guard Lancers from 1852 to 1859. he was the second Trumpet Major of that regiment (of seven from 1821 to 1919)

He won prizes in the march writing competition run by the Berlin publishers Bote and Bock four times, including in three consecutive years from 1857 to 1859

In addition to Giselle he had three marches in the AM III collection as well as a march and two trots in use by Imperial German units not in the AM collection. His Opus numbers were up at 170 by 1857
