Born in Bohemia, he was active in Germany. Besides composition, he was also known as a pianist, piano educator, and conductor. Piano-related activities formed the core of Moscheles' work.
He studied with Weber at the Prague Conservatory. At that time, he showed strong interest in Beethoven's newly completed piano sonatas and traveled to Vienna to visit Beethoven. In Vienna, he studied counterpoint with Albrechtsberger and composition with Salieri. As a pianist, he gained renown throughout various parts of Germany, as well as in Paris, London, and Prague at that time.
