He is mostly known for a few things:
- legacy of students
- teaching a "mechanical" method (set of rules) for sounding "musical" when phrasing music - which caught on and spread to other classical music instrumental disciplines
- his "American scrape" design of oboe reed, which offers a much more flute-like oboe sound and less trumpet-like (continental European) oboe sound
