Retrieved on 30 September 2012. The Symphony No. 4, composed during Beethoven's stay in Silesia in 1806, was commissioned by, and dedicated to Count Franz von Oppersdorff.〕 The young tailor and budding flautist suited von Oppersdorff's requirements and soon was invited to study music formally with the musicians of the Royal Court of OberGlogau.〔 By September 1806, the sixteen-year-old Sedlatzek had become a full member of the Royal Court Orchestra of Count Oppersdorff, affording Johann the opportunity to play for Ludwig van Beethoven during his visit to the Count's Castle that year with the orchestra's performance of Beethoven's own 2nd Symphony.〔Rodda, Richard (2009).

Retrieved on 30 September 2012.〕〔Beethoven's 4th Symphony is dedicated to Count Franz von Oppersdorff.〕 In March 1810, Sedlatzek left his family home to pursue his musical aspirations in Opava, the cultural heart of Silesia at the time, earning his living as Master Tailor while also working as a doorman at the local theater. He then traveled to Brno, Moravia and later to Vienna, Austria〔 repeating this occupational strategy in each new city. Johann Sedlatzek was finally able to put aside the family trade and focus on music exclusively when he was hired as first flute to the "Theater an der Wien" in September 1812.〔 A joint concert with the well-established Viennese musician Raphael Dressler in 1816 at Karntnertortheater, where Dressler was principal flautist,〔 brought Johann to wider attention. The first printed review of a Sedlatzek performance appeared shortly after this event when the "Allgemeine musikalische Zeitung"〔 gave the first of many positive reviews that would follow him throughout his long career in music. Sedlatzek joined the Vienna Society of Musicians (Tonkünstler-Societät) in 1817.〔 That same year, after Dressler moved to London, Sedlatzek was chosen to replace the eminent performer as principal flautist at the Karntnertortheater,〔 a position he would hold for the next eight years while also performing concerts in Germany, conducting a lengthy tour of Italy, and playing around Vienna with his own ensemble, the "Sedlatzek Harmonie Quintet".〔Hoeprich, Eric(2008).

Certain passages of Beethoven's score required the use of the particular Viennese flute which Sedlatzek was known to play with exceptional virtuosity.〔 Only the Viennese flute was capable of playing as low as G, which was required for the proper interpretation of Beethoven's symphony.〔 Other notable musicians who performed in the Vienna premier of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony in 1824 included soprano Henriette Sontag, contralto Caroline Unger, tenor Anton Haizinger, and pianist Conradin Kreutzer. Among the violinists performing that evening were Joseph Bohm, Leopold Jansa, and Joseph Mayseder. In the wind section, playing along with Sedlatzek, were Karl Scholl, Joseph Friedlowsky, Wenzell Sedlak, Thobold Hurth, and Edward Levy. Beethoven, too hard of hearing at this point in his life to conduct, directed the presentation while Ignaz Schuppanzigh led the orchestra and Michael Umlauf conducted the whole.〔Kelly, Thomas Forrest(2000) "First Nights: Five Musical Premiers", Chapter 3, Beethoven's Ninth Symphony.
