Born in Lokuta village, he was a graduate of Tallinn Conservatory.[1][2] His approach to composition was influenced by the work of Rudolph Tobias.[1][2]
In 1941 he was mobilized by the Soviet Army to the Arkhangelsk Oblast, and subsequently was imprisoned in the Vorkutlag, where he died in 1942.[1]
