He was organist in Kensington.〔There is a (record ) of a concert he gave there in 1793.〕 He is mainly known by a few small piano pieces (especially a ''Sonatina in C Major'' and the ''Fanfare'' or ''Fanfare Minuet'') that are still reprinted in pedagogical collections.〔For example: ''Fanfare'': (), (), (); ''Sonatina'': (), (); both: ().〕 They are probably excerpts of the ''Progressive lessons for the harpsichord and piano forte'', published in 1778 (or 1785).
