After he grew up here, after the kingdom was elevated to an Austrian crown land , he attended the Prague Conservatory from 1813 to 1819 , which was founded only a few years earlier. Here he was taught how to play the flute by Michael Janusch, among others . Shortly after graduating there, he appeared as a flute teacher himself, as evidenced by various records from this time. Subsequently he was first flutist at the Graz Theater Orchestra until 1832 , before returning to his hometown in 1833, where he was first flutist at the Estates Theater until 1860 . From 1843 he also held the position of a supervisor at the Estates Theater, and from 1846 the position of an adjunct director. In 1858 he was mentioned in this capacity at the Prague Conservatory.
