Dachs appeared under Franz Liszt's baton at the inaugural concert of the Mozart Centenary Festival in Vienna on 27 January, 1856 (the exact centenary of Mozart's birth), as soloist in Mozart's Piano Concerto no. 24 in C minor (K.491). The performance was attended by Emperor Franz Joseph I and Empress Elisabeth of Austria. Robert Volkmann dedicated his Konzertstück for piano and orchestra, op. 42, to Dachs.
