In his youth he was a student of Pyotr Stolyarsky , who also taught David Oistrach and Nathan Milstein . As a composer he wrote a. a. several works that were published under the names of other composers, e.g. B. 1948 the alleged 21st symphony by Nikolaj Ovsjanniko-Kulikowski (1768-1846), which became famous as a musical hoax . He also gave frequent concerts as a violinist. He also recorded various records, in particular the sonatas and partitas for solo violin by Johann Sebastian Bach . After he had to give up his career as a violinist due to a hand injury, he concentrated on his compositional and music education activities.

Since 1969 he has been professor of violin at the Hamburg University of Music , where he trained many musicians who later became award winners at Jugend musiziert . His long-time assistant was Erdmute Knolle. In 1984 he received the Cross of Merit on Ribbon of the Federal Republic of Germany for his music education work and his social commitment . He gave many concerts together with Galina Kowal and Michael Minsky a . a. in the music hall in Hamburg.
