Biographical sketch
Biographical sketch
Born in Wurzbach, Spindler's output of more than 400 opus numbers includes salon pieces, chamber music, symphonies and other large forms, and over 300 piano pieces. But he is best remembered, if at all today, for a much-anthologized sonatina. He published almost 350 compositions. He died in Niederlößnitz/Radebeul, near Dresden.
