He died in Vienna in poverty. His early piano works are salon pieces, while his Piano Quintet, Op. 30, and Clarinet Trio, Op. 40, are more substantial, written in the Romantic tradition. In 2009, his Piano Quintet was reprinted by Edition Silvertrust. Much of his music is lost or has yet to be uncovered. Steven Isserlis, the cellist, has championed his music, some of which he has rediscovered and performed.
