He conducted in England in 1904, and in Paris in 1911. After arriving in the US in 1914, he conducted Broadway musicals.

His popular tunes include "A Summer Place", "Honey Babe", "Kathy", "So Big", "My Own True Love", "It Can't Be Wrong", "Someday I'll Meet You Again", "As Long As I Live", "On My Way", and "Sugarfoot".
