Biography

He was born into the noble family of Шаблон:Ill and was the fourth son of Шаблон:Ill. His mother was his father's second wife, Auguste Erdmuthe (1738–1775), from the noble family of Шаблон:Ill.

Like most of his relatives, he embarked on an administrative career, in service to the House of Wettin, and was initially a private financial counselor at the Dresden Court. In 1815, he was appointed the Royal Saxon Court Marshal. This automatically made him Director of the Staatskapelle and the Шаблон:Ill, in Dresden and Leipzig. In those positions, he is primarily known for the vigorous support he gave to the composer, Carl Maria von Weber who, at his urging, was named Kapellmeister in 1816.[2]

He also served as Director of the Dresden Academy of Fine Arts, and the Hochschule für Grafik und Buchkunst Leipzig, until shortly before his death.

In 1793, he married Friederike Wilhelmine Gräfin von Hopffgarten (1767-1837), the daughter of Шаблон:Ill, a Saxon Cabinet Minister.[3] They had eight children, only four of whom survived infancy.
