SAUER & LEIDESDORF, a formerly-existing firm of music-publishers in Vienna. Schubert published the following works with them, beginning in 1823: op. 26–30 (including the 'Schöne Müllerin' in 5 parts); 35, 40, 59, 69 (the overture only, for PF. 4 hands, as op. 52). Sauer then retired, and Leidesdorf continued the business alone, publishing for Schubert op. 92, 94, 108; and after his death 119 (Oct. 1829). Leidesdorf was a prolific writer of PF. pieces, much esteemed by amateurs. After the last-mentioned date he went to Florence, and died there Sept. 26, 1840.^[1] His relations to Beethoven are mentioned under Leidesdorf.
