Leidesdorf was an Austrian composer and music publisher, an excellent pianist and prolific composer whose chamber and church music was particularly appreciated. In 1822 he founded the publishing house Sauer & Leidesdorf with Ignaz Sauer; from 1827 to 1833 the company was called Max. Jos. Leidesdorf. Leidesdorf published works by Ludwig van Beethoven and Franz Schubert, among others; in addition, he was one of the composers who contributed a variation to Anton Diabelli's Vaterländischer Künstlerverein. Around 1830 he left Vienna and lived in Florence, where he also died.
