Identity and origins
He collected the works of Mozart and Haydn, including a number of first editions. In or around 1800 he composed four concertos for violin and orchestra, his only major extant compositions, the autograph copies of which were discovered in Hornberg Castle, his family's seat, in 1993. The existence of separate orchestral parts for three of the concertos suggests that they were performed in public.
The authorities additionally record the heading Ernst von Gemmingen. His recorded language was German. He was the child of Ludwig von Gemmingen-Hornberg and Albertine Regina von und zu Gemmingen. 4 children are recorded: Ludwig von Gemmingen, Amalie von Gemmingen, Ernst von Gemmingen and Franziska, Freiin von Gemmingen-Hornberg.
