History

Franz Spiess (Franciszek Henryk Spiess, 1806-1847) and Rudolph Friedlein (Rudolf Fryderyk Friedlein, 1811-1873) founded Fr. Spiess & Co. in Warsaw on May 1, 1840 (Allgemeines Adreßbuch 1845). After Spiess' death the name was changed to R. Friedlein (1849 ca.). This firm continued publishing (mainly songs and piano music) up to 1856.

Unknown what, if any, connection R. Friedlein had with the publisher named Friedlein that operated in Kraków in the 1880s. There was also a certain D.E. Friedlein publishing sheet music in Kraków in early 1840s (Hofmeister lists several editions in 1843, 1845 and 1846). Finally, there was Friedlein & Hirsch music publisher in Leipzig.
